Israeli defence minister: 'Impressive' results achieved since bombing campaign resumed

Israel's defence minister has said that "impressive" results have been achieved in Gaza since the end of the truce on Friday, which has seen more than 100 Palestinians killed already.

"This morning we returned to hitting Hamas with full force - I watched the wave of attacks by the Air Force up close, in one of the combat helicopters over the skies of Gaza - the results are impressive," Yoav Gallant wrote on social media.

"Hamas only understands force - and therefore we will continue to act until we achieve the goals of the war - the dismantling of the organisation, the denial of its military capabilities, and the return of all the abductees to their homes."
