Israeli troops have begun carrying out localized raids inside Gaza almost one week after unprecedented terror attacks by the militant Islamist group Hamas. The military says infantry and tank units entered the strip to track down rocket crews, destroy weapons and search for hostages. The raids are taking place ahead of an expected ground offensive. Israel has massed troops and tanks along the Gaza border.

Thousands of people are now attempting to flee their homes in northern Gaza. The Israeli military had given over 1 million people there just 24 hours to evacuate south. The United Nations has called the order 'impossible,' and the terror group Hamas is telling people to stay in their homes.

Israel has also exchanged rocket fire with Lebanon and Syria, opening up the possibility of a wider conflict. Could Israel handle a multi-front war?

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has wrapped up talks in Qatar. He's been travelling around the region in an attempt to prevent the conflict from widening. He began his trip in Israel to show support and discuss hostage negotiations. Blinken also met the Palestinian president in Jordan. He says the meetings are vital to contain the violence.
