Israel resumed its attack on Gaza on Friday after they claimed that Hamas violated the truce by launching airstrikes at them. Retaliation strikes came in barrages and IDF ground operations immediately moved ahead, bringing more distraught to an already broken community. Palestinians are now fleeing the strip by all means possible as it is reduced to rubble. Hamas still refuses to give up more hostages, though, which is the only thing that will make Israel pause in the fighting.
