As Secretary of State Antony Blinken left Israel on Friday, he was asked about a report by The New York Times alleging Israel knew about Hamas' attack plan a year in advance.

"There's going to be plenty of opportunity for a full accounting of … looking back to see what happened [and] who knew what, when -- Israel has been very clear about that," Blinken said.

"Right now, the focus is on making sure that [Israel] can do everything possible to ensure that it doesn't happen again, make sure that civilians are protected, and that humanitarian assistance gets in, and as I said, to also look at what happens once this conflict is over -- what happens in Gaza, what happens more broadly getting us on a path to lasting security," Blinken continued. "So we're focused on on all of that. I think there'll be time, and I know this will happen -- there will be accountability, looking at what led up to Oct. 7."

As fighting between Israel and Hamas resumes, Israel's "relentless bombardment" in Gaza on Friday has been "utterly terrifying" -- and has had an immediate impact “on the faces of children," UNICEF spokesperson James Elder told ABC News.

"I feel I was starting to see childhood return when you chat to them -- that’s been replaced by fear again," Elder said. "There’s a trauma which returns very quickly."

Elder described seeing "children lying on the floor with limbs missing." He said some children who had already been injured were being moved around hospitals to make room for other casualties to come in.

He said sanitation "has broken down" and Gaza’s hospitals are now "on life support."

“Disease threatens just as many children" as the bombings, he said.

Over the last seven days, aid has been reaching Gaza, he said, but, "seven days was never ever enough.”

Elder said he’s "terrified" that if the fighting continues for even another couple of weeks, “many, many more thousands of people" could be killed.

As a truce ended between Israel and Hamas on Friday, both sides traded blame for reigniting the war.

Israel accused Hamas of violating the cease-fire by firing rockets toward Israeli territory just after 7 a.m. local time, as negotiations failed to further extend the truce. The Israeli military has since resumed combat in the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip, with ground, air and naval forces striking more than 200 "terror targets" in the north and south thus far, according to the Israel Defense Forces.

Meanwhile, Hamas accused Israel of "persistently rejecting" all its offers to release more hostages in Gaza amid negotiations to extend the cease-fire agreement on Thursday night. Hamas alleged that it had offered to hand over more Israeli detainees, including the elderly, as well as the bodies of those who have died in captivity, which the militant group claimed was a result of previous Israeli bombings.

"However, the [Israeli] occupation, driven by a predetermined decision to resume criminal aggression, remained unresponsive," Hamas said in a statement.

An Israeli kibbutz confirmed Friday the death of three of its residents who were taken hostage by Hamas during the Oct. 7 attack.

Kibbutz Nir Oz announced that 85-year-old resident Aryeh Zalmanovich has died in Hamas captivity in the Gaza Strip. Zalmanovich was one of the founders of the kibbutz, which is located in southern Israel near the border with Gaza.

“Father of two sons and grandfather of five grandchildren. Aryeh was a man of the land all his life who was engaged in agriculture and field crops,” the kibbutz said in a statement. “A man of books and has a wide knowledge of history and knowledge of the country.”

Gaza's militant rulers, Hamas, released a video in mid-November that appeared to show Zalmanovich looking ill. The group claimed he had later died.

Kibbutz Nir Oz also announced that 54-year-old resident Ronen Engel has died in Hamas captivity in Gaza. The kibbutz described Engel as a "photographer, MDA volunteer and motorcycle enthusiast." His wife and two daughters were also kidnapped to Gaza on Oct. 7 and released this week, according to the kibbutz.

A third resident of kibbutz Nir Oz, 56-year-old resident Maya Goren, was also confirmed to have died in Hamas captivity in Gaza. Her husband was among those killed on Oct. 7, according to the kibbutz.

"Maya was a hardworking and dedicated kindergarten teacher, and gave loving care to the kibbutz children for many years," the kibbutz said in a statement.
