Israel Dispatch: 6 Minutes At Gaza Strip

Republic's Yeshaya Rosenman reports near Gaza border from the town of Sderot on the third day of the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas. Several people have left while others are taking shelter as rockets are regularly fired by Hamas from Gaza. The unprecedented attack by Hamas began early on Saturday morning, as the fighters used cover from a barrage of rockets. The terrorists claimed to have fired thousands of rockets - with some targeting cities as far as Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. Israel has launched waves of air strikes in the Gaza Strip in response. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel was "at war" and vowed that Hamas, Gaza's rulers, will "pay a price it has never known".
