The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) late Saturday urged US airlines and pilots to use caution when flying in Israeli airspace after a surprise attack by Hamas militants.

The FAA's warning mirrors an alert issued by the Israeli government and applies to all altitudes due to the unfolding resistance operation taking place for around 24 hours now.

Similarly, the Israeli embassy in Jordan was evacuated and the embassy staff returned to 'Tel Aviv' following orders to evacuate it in the wake of the Palestinian Operation Al Aqsa Flood. 

The evacuation order came after the Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Resistance Movement “Hamas,” announced that clashes between the resistance and the Israeli occupation forces were ongoing in several areas.

On Saturday at dawn, the Palestinian resistance launched Operation Al-Aqsa Flood successfully stormed Israeli settlements, and captured a number of settlers.

As a result of the operation, 300 Israelis were killed, including the commander of the Nahal Brigade (one of the Israeli elite brigades), Yehontan Steinberg, during a clash with a Palestinian resistance fighter, near Kerem Shalom, according to what was confirmed by Israeli media.

The operation was announced by Mohammad Deif, Commander-in-Chief of al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, following a barrage of rockets and an infiltration operation into Gaza Envelope settlements.

The Biden administration provided briefings to House and Senate intelligence committee staff members about the ongoing situation in "Israel," Politico reported on Saturday, noting that questions are being raised on whether the US and "Israel" had any knowledge prior to Hamas launching its resistance operation. 

The briefings, conducted at the classified level, raised questions about why Israeli intelligence appeared to be unaware of the operation. Staff members are particularly interested in investigating potential lapses in intelligence, considering it a plausible scenario at this time.

"That something of this size could be pulled off, I can tell you that that is not done without a lot of observable signals," said Rep. Jim Himes (D-Conn.), ranking member of the House Intelligence Committee. "It was kind of shocking in its size and ambition."
