Operation Cast Lead is a Israeli air strike operation launched on December 27, 2008, in order to destroy Hamas military capacities.

The airstrikes killed more than 205 Palestinians and injured 270 others, mostly Hamas militants.

The air offensive followed weeks of intense Palestinian rocket and mortar fire on southern Israel. See: List of Qassam rocket attacks, 2008
