She also announced the mobilization of 300,000 reservists, an unprecedented figure, and the establishment of a total blockade of Gaza, a sign that she could prepare a ground assault in response to the devastating attack perpetrated this weekend .

The surprise attack, launched on Saturday at dawn by the Islamist movement, left hundreds dead on both camps. Many Israelis, civilians and soldiers, have been kidnapped by Palestinian fighters.
