Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said that Hamas did not agree to release further hostages, infringing on terms of a truce, and that Israel remained committed to achieving its objectives as fighting resumed, according to Reuters.
Hamas did not release all women hostages as agreed and also launched rockets at Israel, Netanyahu’s office said.
“With the resumption of fighting we emphasise: The Israeli government is committed to achieving the goals of the war — to free our hostages, to eliminate Hamas, and to ensure that Gaza will never pose a threat to the residents of Israel,” it said.
