Donald Trump warned Hamas against “the matter ends for you” unless the remaining hostages he kept in Gaza preceded, hours after Washington said it had held direct talks with the armed group.

In most of his warrior statements so far on the conflict, the American president added that he “sends Israel everything he needs to end the job” in the besieged tape, with Ghazan warning that they are “dead” if the hostages are not launched.

“I send Israel everything you need to finish the mission, and it will not be a single member of Hamas if you do not do as I said,” Trump He wrote on Wednesday after meeting eight former hostages in the Oval Office.

“This is your last warning! For leadership, it is time to leave Gaza, while you still have a chance. Also, for the people of Gaza: a beautiful future awaits, but not if you hold hostages. If you do so, you are dead!” He added.

“Edit the hostages now, or there will be hell to pay later!” Trump wrote.

The incendiary statements came hours after the White House said that the United States had negotiated directly with Hamas about the possibility of American hostages in the first direct talks with the militant group.

Direct diplomacy, which was held in Qatar by a special host of hostage affairs, Adam Bouhler, comes in talks to extend the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas Or made it permanent stopped.

Trump, who returned to the White House, promised to end the war, has pledged in recent weeks to seize Gaza, replacing more than 2 million Palestinians in the tape and developing it in the “Riviera in the Middle East”.

In response to a question about whether it is we White House press secretary Caroline Levitte said on Wednesday:

Levitte said that the United States had consulted with Israel about the talks, adding that Trump believes in “dialogue and speaking to people all over the world to do what is in the interest of the American people.”

A person familiar with the matter said that the discussions covered the potential edition of the American hostages and ended the war.

On Wednesday night, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said: “Israel has expressed to the United States from its position regarding direct talks with Hamas.”

Israel demanded the abolition of the full urgency of Gaza and enthusiasm to disarm and abandon power. Some officials have raised the possibility of exile for the armed group, including but not limited to driving.

The United States has always avoided direct talks with Hamas, which it identified as a terrorist group in 1997.

Hamas still holds 59 hostages in Gaza, and it is believed that less than half of them are alive. Five American American citizens, including one, condemned Alexander from New Jersey, who is believed to be alive.

According to Israeli officials, Steve Witkev’s envoy at the end of last week presented a “suggestion of dam” to extend the current ceasefire for another 50 days. The agreement will be available on Hamas to launch the remaining half of the hostages who were still being held.

Hamas immediately rejected the proposal, describing it “manipulation.”

More than 48,000 Ghazan was killed by Israel attack on the tape, according to Palestinian health officials. The war arose through the Hamas attack on October 7, 2023 in southern Israel, where the militants killed about 1,200 people and seized 250 hostages.

The United States, Qatar and Egypt mediated in the ceasefire deal in January, with a six -week initial truce in which more than three of the hostages and about 1500 Palestinian prisoners were released from Israeli prisons.

That first stage ended at the end of last week, although the fighting did not resume.

Hamas has been publicly steadfast in its position that the next stage of the ceasefire, which helped the Trump team in the mediator, must be agreed upon before issuing any additional hostages.

The second stage is supposed to include an entire Israeli withdrawal from Gaza, a permanent end of war and the rebuilding of shattered lands.

But Netanyahu has repeatedly refused to end the 16 -month war or withdraw the forces from Gaza.

In response to Hamas’s refusal of a proposal to Witkeov, Israel I suspended all the entry of aid In the besieged pocket on Sunday, he threatened to cut water and electricity before a renewed possible attack.

“Israel will not allow a ceasefire without firing our hostages. If Hamas continues to reject it, there will be other consequences.”

The United States is pushing to extend the ceasefire deal for hosting, which was negotiated by Witkoff and Biden Administration before Trump’s return to office.

Analysts said that the United States will struggle to present what Hamas wanted in the talks, adding that the talks with the armed group had risked a wedge between the Israeli public and Washington.

“It is difficult to imagine that this will be successful because what Hamas wants is that the war has ended, which the United States cannot control, and Palestinian prisoners from Israeli prisons, which the United States cannot control,” said Jonathan Panekov of the Atlantic Council.

He added: “There are great risks to negotiating with terrorist groups because the knowledge that Washington will do so motivates them to repeat their activities in the future.”
