President Obama has said that he will work to reestablish a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in Gaza after a truce that was supposed to start on Friday collapsed within hours. Mr. Obama demanded the immediate release of an Israeli soldier thought to have been captured as fighting resumed. He said it was heartbreaking to see what was happening to civilians in Gaza but Hamas had to show that it was serious about wanting an end to the violence. Mr. Obama said that United States faced a dilemma over Gaza.

原定于周五开始的休战在几小时内宣告破裂,奥巴马总统称将致力于重新促成以色列和巴勒斯坦在加沙停火。随着战争继续,奥巴马要求立即释放其认为被俘获的以色列士兵。他表示,加沙民众的遭遇令人心痛,但哈马斯必须表明他们渴望停止暴力。奥巴马总统称美国在加沙问题上面临困境。

Israel has right to defend itself and it's got to be able to get that those rockets and those tunnels networks, on the other hand, because of the incredibly irresponsible actions on the part of Hamas to often times house these rocket launchers right in the middle of civilian neighborhoods. We end up seeing people who had nothing to do with these rockets ending up being hurt.

以色列有权自卫,他们有能力获取那些火箭弹和隧道网络,另一方面,由于哈马斯极为不负责任的行为,他们经常把火箭发射器隐藏在平民社区中。我们最终看到与火箭弹无关的人员受害。

The Palestinians say more than 50 people have been killed in Israel's renewed bombardment.

巴勒斯坦人称,以色列重新轰炸,导致50多人死亡。以色列曾誓言以毁灭性力量回应其士兵被俘事件,该国军队已进入加沙南部进行搜索。我们的记者John Donathan在加沙街头报道。

Fighting erupted around Rafa in the south of Gaza. Israeli helicopters attacked from the air as ever who fight first was disputed. Israel blamed Hamas fighters who it said crossed the border through a tunnel to launch attacking including one suicide bomber. But a Hamas spokesman denied it had broken the ceasefire.
