The Embassy of Georgia in Tel Aviv, Israel addresses the citizens of Georgia living in Israel on Tuesday.
"Taking into account the escalation of the situation in the southern region of Israel, especially in nearby cities and settlements and Gaza Strip, please carefully follow the developments and act in accordance with the recommendations of Israeli Emergency Situation Service, local municipality and police.
“The following hotline is operating at the embassy: + 9723609-3206, +972526919092 ", - the Embassy statement reads
Palestinian terrorist organization Hamas sent 370 shells to Gaza Strip late on Monday.
On the other hand, Israeli Air Force targeted 100 sites of Palestine shortly after the attack.
Violence erupted when a covert Israeli mission was exposed in Gaza on Sunday.
Seven Palestinian militants, including a Hamas military commander, were killed during the incident, including a member of the Israeli undercover unit, the BBC says.
Hamas is a Palestinian Islamist political organization and militant group that has waged war on Israel since the group's 1987 founding, most notably through suicide bombings and rocket attacks. It seeks to replace Israel with a Palestinian state. It also governs Gaza independently of the Palestinian Authority, Vox reads.
