Since Hamas militants surged into Israel from Gaza over the weekend, at least 1,600 people have died on both sides. More than 150 troops and civilians are held prisoner by Hamas and other Gaza militants.
Since Israel launched a significant counter-offensive against Hamas, a terrorist organization, the situation is expected to grow.
