A short history of Hamas, the Palestinian militant group that has attacked Israel
Hamas is the largest Palestinian militant Islamist group and one of the two major political parties in the region. It is also designated a terrorist group by Israel, the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, and other countries
Israel declared a state of war after Palestinian militants launched barrages of rockets into southern and central Israel and dozens of them crossed the border fence in several locations on Saturday (October 7). At least 22 Israelis were killed and more than 500 people were injured in the attacks, according to the BBC.

Attributing the attacks to the Palestinian militant group Hamas, the Israel Defence Forces began to carry out air strikes on Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip, which is controlled by the organisation.

In a statement, Israel’s Defence Minister Yoav Gallant said, “Hamas has made a grave mistake this morning and launched a war against the State of Israel”.

Meanwhile, Mohammed Deif,
Meanwhile, Mohammed Deif, the leader of Hamas’ military wing, said 5,000 rockets had been fired into Israel early on Saturday to launch what he called “Operation Al-Aqsa Storm”. “We’ve decided to say enough is enough,” he added.

Who are Hamas?
Hamas is the largest Palestinian militant Islamist group and one of the two major political parties in the region. Currently, it governs more than two million Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. The organisation, however, is also known for its armed resistance against Israel (more on this later).

Hamas as a whole, or in some cases its military wing, is designated a terrorist group by Israel, the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, and other countries.

How was Hamas formed?
The group was founded in the late 1980s, after the beginning of the first Palestinian intifada, or uprising, against Israel’s occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip — the Jewish state had captured the two Palestinian territories after winning the 1967 Israeli-Arab War.
