11:39Now PlayingThe ceasefire in Gaza has collapsed just hours after it began, with more than 40 Palestinians killed and the capture of an Israeli soldier. Israeli tanks reportedly opened fire in the southern Rafah area just hours after the 72hour ceasefire began. Israel is claiming Hamas first broke the ceasefire by firing rockets from southern Gaza. Meanwhile, the Israeli military has launched a major effort to locate a soldier they say was captured near Rafah. The Israeli military says the soldier was captured when Israeli forces attempting to destroy a tunnel were attacked by militants including a suicide bomber. Talks had been scheduled for this weekend in Cairo, but are now in limbo. We are joined from Gaza by two guestsRaji Sourani, director of the Palestinian Center for Human Rights; and Mohammed Omer, an awardwinning Palestinian journalist and Rafah resident.
