Trump warns Hamas to continue with peace deal

“Release all of the Hostages now, not later, and immediately return all of the dead bodies of the people you murdered, or it is OVER for you,” Mr Trump wrote on Truth Social yesterday, after meeting with six former hostages released under the recently expired ceasefire deal pausing the war.

“I am sending Israel everything it needs to finish the job, not a single Hamas member will be safe if you don’t do as I say,” he added, telling the group his post was a “last warning”.

Israeli defense minister Israel Katz had a similar message earlier this week, telling Hamas: “The gates of Gaza will be locked, and the gates of hell will open.”
