Dec 16, 2024, 05:16 PM
President-elect Donald Trump has issued a stern warning to Hamas, stating that if the hostages held in Gaza, including seven American citizens, are not released by his inauguration on January 20, "all hell is going to break out" and "there will be hell to pay." After "a good conversation with Bibi" Netanyahu, Trump discussed what is coming and the current status of the hostages, emphasizing his commitment to securing their release. "There is a light shining over the world," he said, expressing hope for their return. He reiterated that failure to release the hostages before he takes office would result in severe consequences. "It's not going to be pleasant," Trump warned, implying that his administration would take decisive action if the situation is not resolved.
