US President Donald Trump on Wednesday urged Hamas to release “all 20 Israeli hostages” as a condition to end the war in Gaza.
In a post on his Truth Social platform, Trump pressed for swift action, declaring: “Tell Hamas to IMMEDIATELY give back all 20 hostages.”
He rejected the idea of partial releases, insisting that nothing short of the return of all captives would be acceptable. “I won’t accept two or three hostages. All 20 must be freed,” he said.
Trump ended his remarks by suggesting that such a move would pave the way for a ceasefire in Gaza, writing: “IT WILL END.”
