The announcements come just hours after a weeklong cease-fire between Israel and Hamas expired on Friday morning. During the temporary truce, Hamas released approximately 110 hostages in return for hundreds of Palestinian prisoners.<\/p>\n

Fighting resumed just minutes after the cease-fire expired, although negotiators are attempting to form a new, lasting agreement.<\/p>\n
