Israel's military says it's resumed operations in the Gaza Strip, just minutes after a seven-day pause in fighting ended.
The temporary ceasefire expired at 7 a.m. local time, but negotiators failed to agree to a further extension that would have secured the release of more Hamas-held hostages. Israel said it resumed combat after the militant group violated the terms of the truce. There's been no immediate comment from Hamas, which is considered a terrorist organization by the US and the EU.
For more on this, we talk to DW correspondent Ben Fajzullin in Jerusalem and to Hazem Balousha. He is a journalist from Gaza who was able to escape to the Jordanian capital Amman in the early days of this war.
For more on Israel’s military operation, we talk to Military Expert Frank Ledwidge in Oxford.
