Airstrikes continued in the Gaza region on Monday as Israeli officials ordered a "complete siege" of the region following a surprise attack by Palestinian terror group Hamas over the weekend.
Israel cut off all food, electricity, medicine, water and gas for the 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza, Israel's Defence Minister Yoav Galland said.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said airstrikes against Hamas in Gaza were "just the beginning".
"We haven't seen atrocities of the kind Hamas is committing since the atrocities of the Islamic State," Mr Netanyahu said.
