The Israeli military said Monday it was still battling Hamas militants in several locations inside Israel's borders — on the third day after the attack from Gaza by hundreds of Hamas fighters.
A military spokesman said there are still breaches in the barrier between the Gaza Strip and Israel where militants could be entering the country. "We thought this morning we'd be in a better place," said Lt. Col. Richard Hecht, one of the army's spokesmen.
Israeli media reported more than 700 people were killed by Hamas. The Associated Press reported that militants claimed to have taken some 130 captives — including women and children. The figure is unconfirmed.

Around 2,750 have been injured. In other areas, the Palestinian Health Ministry said 15 Palestinians have been killed since Saturday, among them two minors, and 80 wounded across six different locations in West Bank and Jerusalem.
"Where are the international community's responses to this?" the ministry said Sunday."...
