US President Donald Trump issued an ultimatum to Hamas on Wednesday, after meeting hostages who were freed by the terror group.
Trump demanded that the group release all the remaining hostages immediately, “or it is over for you”.
“‘Shalom Hamas’ means Hello and Goodbye - You can choose. 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. Only sick and twisted people keep bodies, and you are sick and twisted!” Trump wrote on his social media channels.
“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 continued. I have just met with your former Hostages whose lives you have destroyed. This is your last warning!”
“For the leadership, now is the time to leave Gaza, while you still have a chance. Also, to the People of Gaza: A beautiful Future awaits, but not if you hold Hostages. If you do, you are DEAD! Make a SMART decision. RELEASE THE HOSTAGES NOW, OR THERE WILL BE HELL TO PAY LATER!” the President wrote.
Trump last month issued a warning to Hamas and demanded it release all the hostages or “all hell is going to break out.”
That ultimatum came after Hamas announced ot would postpone a scheduled release of hostages, claiming that Israel violated the terms of the agreement.
Ultimately, Hamas issued an official announcement confirming the continuation of the ceasefire deal as was initially agreed upon.
