A senior Hamas official has said Israel has decided to “sacrifice" its hostages by re-launching massive strikes in the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, shattering a period of relative calm since a January truce.

“Benjamin Netanyahu’s decision to resume war is a decision to sacrifice the occupation’s prisoners and impose a death sentence on them," Hamas official Izzat al-Rishq said in a statement, adding that the Israeli premier was using the fighting as a political “lifeboat" to distract from internal crises.
