US President Donald Trump gives what he declares is his “last warning” to Hamas to accept his terms for ending the war.
The message is sent in a Truth Social post that doesn’t specify what those terms are, though some of the alleged details were reported earlier today. But Trump says Israel has accepted them.
“Everyone wants the hostages HOME. Everyone wants this war to end!” Trump writes
“It is time for Hamas to accept [my terms] as well,” he writes.
“I have warned Hamas about the consequences of not accepting. This is my last warning. There will not be another one,” Trump asserts.
Trump has issued a nearly identical ultimatum before, though, threatening Hamas with “HELL TO PAY” in a March post that he also claimed was his “last warning.”
Last week, Trump wrote on Truth Social that Hamas should “IMMEDIATELY give back all 20 Hostages.”
There are currently 48 hostages in Gaza — roughly 20 of whom are believed to still be alive.
