Summary

Israel says the air strikes launched on various targets in Gaza for the past twenty four hours have targeted sites belonged to both Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and included launch posts, weapons stockpiles and military infrastructure. The new round of military action marks the end of a nearly two-month-long ceasefire which saw the release of multiple hostages. A senior Hamas official says Israel's resumption of the war amounts to a 'death sentence' for the remaining hostages, including American, Edan Alexander. FOX’s John Saucier speaks with Trey Yingst, chief foreign correspondent for FOX News Channel, in Tel Aviv, and author of the book 'Black Saturday: An Unfiltered Account of the October 7th Attack on Israel and the War in Gaza', about the IDF latest action in Gaza and the current state of hostages still being held.
