The office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that US President Joe Biden had a telephone conversation with Netanyahu and conveyed unwavering support for "Israel" in the midst of the escalating Palestinian-Israeli conflict, Netanyahu's office said in a statement on Saturday.

"US President Joe Biden today … called Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and stressed that the US stands with Israel and fully supports Israel's right for self-defense," the statement read.

In turn, Netanyahu expressed his gratitude to Biden for the support and emphasized the necessity for a sustained effort aimed at achieving a definitive victory for "Israel."

On Saturday morning, the Palestinian Resistance in Gaza launched rocket barrages targeting illegal Israeli settlements, including "Bat Yam" and "Rishon LeZiyyon" south of "Tel Aviv." Sirens were activated in Gaza Envelope settlements and "Tel Aviv", with the Iron Dome attempting interception.

Additionally, the Palestinian Resistance reportedly breached the separation barrier, fired at a settler's vehicle, and engaged in gunfire at the Urim junction, causing injuries. There were also reports of a joint attack with gliders attempting to infiltrate the south. In response to the rocket attacks, Israeli forces opened shelters in "Tel Aviv" and "Ashdod".

Mohammad Deif, Commander-in-Chief of al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, said that the operation comes in response to the Israeli occupation's desecration of al-Aqsa Mosque, as well as multiple assaults against women in its yards. 

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recognized that "Israel" is "at war", adding that this morning, Hamas initiated "a surprise attack".

In a filmed statement published several hours after the Palestinian Resistance launched Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, Netanyahu confirmed that he convened the heads of the Israeli security establishment and directed that Palestinian Resistance fighters who crossed into Gaza envelope settlements be neutralized.

"In parallel, I am initiating an extensive mobilization of the reserves to fight back on a scale and intensity that the enemy has so far not experienced," he added.

"The enemy will pay an unprecedented price."
