Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said on Oct. 9 that his country would impose a “complete siege” on the Gaza Strip, from where Hamas terrorists launched a shock attack in which more than 900 Israelis were killed and many more injured.

Mr. Gallant said that authorities would cut off electricity and block the entry of food and fuel to Gaza, while labeling as “human animals” the terrorists who two days earlier launched an unprecedented incursion into southern Israel and massacred scores of Israeli civilians.
