War Resume in Gaza as Truce Ends

Israeli warplanes resumed the pounding of Gaza, Palestinian civilians fled for shelter, and rocket sirens blared in southern Israel on Friday as war resumed after a week-long truce collapsed with no deal to extend it.

The Israeli military announced that it had resumed combat operations, accusing Hamas of violating the truce first by firing rockets.

Hamas said Israel bore responsibility for the end of the truce, accusing it of rejecting all offers to release more of the hostages militants in the enclave are holding.
