If it's Friday, violence returns to the Mideast as the truce between Israel and Hamas

ends amid new reporting from the New York Times that Israel was warned about Hamas's attack plan and

failed to act. Plus disgraced George Santos is ousted from Congress in a historic

House expulsion vote as Republicans grapple with an even more narrow

majority. And two governors, two visions and a whole lot of fighting. What

last night's fiery and bitter debate really means for two aspiring

politicians looking up at two aging and unpopular party leaders. Welcome to Meet the Press Now, I'm Kristen Welker in Washington following the latest

developments in the Israel-Hemas War as fighting resumes in Gaza with no

agreement to extend the seven-day ceasefire. Flares could be seen on the Gaza skyline

in the last few hours as Israel resumed its bombardment,

accusing Hamas a firing first with rocket attacks

and smoke and explosion seen earlier in the day.

There have been reports of fierce fighting in central Gaza,

and this video captured by our NBC team

shows the aftermath of strikes in the southern city of Con Yunus.

And over Tel Aviv, interceptions by Israel's Iron Dome defense system could be seen.

Both Hamas and Islamic Jihad now say they launched more missile attacks targeting

broker another truce with Hamas. Secretary Blinkin blamed Hamas today

for ending the ceasefire.
