Donald Trump Says ‘Let Hell Break Out’ If Hamas Doesn’t Free All Hostages…..See More

President Donald Trump has said that he would want the already fragile ceasefire between Israel and Hamas to be “canceled” if the militant organization does not free all the hostages by his given deadline. Knewz.com has learned that the ceasefire in Gaza has “facilitated hostage exchanges and humanitarian aid deliveries,” according to reports.

However reports have pointed out that Trump’s latest comments threaten to upend the current truce in the region and ignite violence in the volatile Gaza Strip.

The
first phase of the ceasefire saw Hamas releasing 21 hostages and Israel freeing over 730 Palestinian detainees so far over five exchanges since January 19.

“However, the second phase of the ceasefire—requiring Hamas to release all remaining hostages in exchange for a prolonged truce—remains unresolved,” reports have pointed out

Amist this uncertainty came Trump’s ultimatum where he said: “As far as I’m concerned, if all of the hostages aren’t returned by Saturday 12 o’clock – I think it’s an appropriate time – I would say cancel it and all bets are off and let hell break out

Trump
made the ultimatum days after Hamas threatened to delay the scheduled release of three Israeli hostages, citing allegations that Israel has breached the ceasefire by blocking humanitarian aid from reaching civilians.

Hamas spokesperson Sami Abu Zuhri said in a statement, “Trump must remember there is an agreement that must be respected by both parties.”

The language of threats has no value; it only complicates matters,” he said, adding that the militant organization would only free the hostages if Israel completely abides by the ceasefire agreement and that Hamas’s stance would not change based on threats from the United States.

It is worth noting that Trump has stated that the final decision regarding the ceasefire ultimately rests with Israel.
