US President Donald Trump says he will give the Hamas terror group “three or four days” to agree to his Gaza peace plan.
He tells reporters as he departs the White House that Israeli and Arab leaders have accepted the plan and “we’re just waiting for Hamas.”
He says the terror group has about “three or four days” to respond.
“Hamas is either going to be doing it or not, and if it’s not, it’s going to be a very sad end,” he says.
Asked if there is room for negotiations on the peace plan, Trump says: “Not much.”
The plan, unveiled yesterday, would see all the hostages released within 72 hours, and the Strip demilitarized and handed over to a transitional, “technocratic” government. Hamas members who give up their arms would be granted amnesty.
