President-elect Donald Trump has a message for Hamas as his return to the White House approaches.
Everybody is talking about the hostages who are being held so violently, inhumanely, and against the will of the entire World, in the Middle East But its all talk, and no action! he wrote on Truth Social on Monday. Please let this TRUTH serve to represent that if the hostages are not released prior to January 20, 2025, the date that I proudly assume Office as President of the United States, there will be ALL HELL TO PAY in the Middle East, and for those in charge who perpetrated these atrocities against Humanity.
Those responsible will be hit harder than anybody has been hit in the long and storied History of the United States of America. RELEASE THE HOSTAGES NOW! Trump concluded.
Trumps remarks came after U.S. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said that Hamas is starting to feel pressure and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has agreed that the time is right for a cease-fire agreement that returns the remaining captives from Gaza after President Joe Bidens administration spoke to the family of American hostage Edan Alexander.
