President Trump publicly delivered an ultimatum to Hamas, urging the militant group to accept a proposed hostage release agreement—or face the consequences of refusal. The president declared it was his “last warning,” affirming that Israel has already accepted the terms of the deal.
The proposal reportedly includes Hamas releasing 48 remaining hostages on the first day of a truce, in exchange for thousands of Palestinian prisoners being released by Israel and the launch of ceasefire negotiations. Israel is said to be seriously considering the offer.
Hamas responded by acknowledging receipt of the proposals through intermediaries and indicated readiness to discuss them further. However, the group emphasized that any release of hostages must be accompanied by a clear end to the war and the withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza.
Trump maintained that negotiations are ongoing and satellite a breakthrough could be imminent. He expressed confidence to reporters that “we’re going to get them all,” whether alive or deceased, signaling unresolved but advancing diplomacy.
