On New Year's Eve at Mar-a-Lago, Trump Warns Hamas to Release Hostages Soon
Jan 1, 2025, 02:31 AM
President-elect Donald Trump issued a stern ultimatum to Hamas on New Year's Eve, declaring, "They better let the hostages come back soon." Speaking at his Mar-a-Lago resort during an interview with journalist Alayna Treene, Trump emphasized the urgency of releasing the hostages held by the militant group. He had previously warned that "there will be hell to pay" if a ceasefire deal isn't reached by the time he takes office. The statements underscore Trump's hardline stance on the issue as he prepares to assume office in 2025.
