US senator calls for action to disarm Hamas, Hezbollah

The Straits Times

December 23, 2025

US Senator Lindsey Graham called on Dec 21 for renewed military action against Hamas and Hezbollah if they fail to disarm, and accused the Palestinian Islamist group of consolidating its power in Gaza.

The Republican politician, on a visit to Israel, is a staunch ally of US President Donald Trump.

Beginning in October, a fragile ceasefire has so far halted two years of war between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip, despite both sides trading accusations of truce violations.

A separate ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon's Hezbollah came into effect in November 2024 after more than a year of hostilities, though Israel continues to carry out strikes on Lebanese territory.

Israel has made dismantling the arsenals of both groups, allies of its arch-foe Iran, a key condition for any lasting peace.

“It’s imperative we come up with a plan quickly, put Hamas on a time clock, give them a period of time to achieve the goal of disarmament,” Mr Graham said at a press conference during his visit.

“And if you don’t, I would encourage President Trump to unleash Israel to go finish off Hamas.
