Hamas threatens to renew attacks Friday
Sources in Hamas say that as the 72-hour truce deadline concludes on Friday at 8 a.m., it will resume striking Israeli targets, Ynet reports.
“The Al-Qassam Brigades and Jerusalem battalions will renew its attacks immediately with the end of the ceasefire period on Friday at 8 a.m.,” sources say.
The statement comes as an Israeli official says Jerusalem is willing to extend the ceasefire unconditionally, and Palestinian and Israeli delegations attend mediated talks in Cairo.
