Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday expressed solidarity with Israel as Hamas launched land, sea and air attacks from the Gaza Strip. In the backdrop of the sudden outbreak of conflict, the Indian embassy in Israel has urged Indian nationals to remain vigilant.
Chief Minister of Meghalaya Conrad Sangma has said that at least 27 persons from the State visiting Christian holy sites in Bethlehem are “stuck” because of the situation.
“Deeply shocked by the news of terrorist attacks in Israel. Our thoughts and prayers are with the innocent victims and their families. We stand in solidarity with Israel at this difficult hour,” said Mr. Modi, hours after thousands of rockets from the Gaza Strip slammed into south and central Israel.
