In reply to the discussion: Gaza conflict Ceasefire crumbles as Israeli, Hamas trade fire hours after agreed 72-hour truce began [View all]starroute
(12,977 posts)13. Nothing in the post you're replying to comes from Hamas
It cites a CNN reporter and the IDF.
However, there does appear to have been a bug in the ceasefire agreement from the start, since Israel apparently felt no compulsion to stop destroying Hamas tunnels. Think what you will of Hamas, it's very hard to imagine them just sitting back for three days and letting that proceed.
