stees fire fallen apart. israel and hamas are accusing each other of breaking the cease-fire. "today in the bay's" tracy potts joins us live from washington, d.c., this morning, israel says one of the soldiers has been captured. so clearly this is not a good sign. >> reporter: exactly. and it was a hunt for the soldier in southern gaza today that israel says led to the other events. the other events being tank fire that killed 40 palestinians. we initially heard that two israeli soldiers were killed as well as the one that was abducted that they've been on that massive search for all morning. bottom line, what was supposed to be a three day cease fire barely lasted three hours this morning as all of that unfolded. the question is are peace talks now going to continue? the whole reason for the cease-fire. one of the reasons was to allow the israelis and the palestinians to undergo peace talks in egypt. egypt was hosting those talks,

possibly starting today. the u.s. was sending a delegation from the state department as well, but now with the cease-fire completely falling apart. it's not clear that those talks will continue. kris. >> thank you very much, tracy. series of gas explosions in taiwan killed 24 people and injured hundreds more. four firefighters are among the dead. the explosions tore through taiwan's second largest city in an area where several chemical companies operate pipelines. and that makes it so crews can not put out the flames with water. now they have to wait for the gas to burn off. faa put new restrictions on u.s. airlines flying over iraq. the new restrictions ban u.s. carriers from flying at or below 30,000 feet over iraq, several european airlines have also made alternate flight plans. authorities fear militants could have weapons capable of shooting down planes under 30,000 feet. the move comes two weeks after a malaysian airlines flight was shot down over rebel territory
