Trump Drops Blunt Warning For Hamas Amid Rising Tensions

Written by Published

President Donald Trump delivered a stern ultimatum to Hamas on Monday, emphasizing that the group must "be good" or face eradication.

This declaration comes as his administration endeavors to maintain the delicate cease-fire he orchestrated between Israel and Hamas.

As reported by Sean Hannity, Trump addressed the media at the White House, stating, "Theyre violent people. Hamas has been very violent, but they dont have the backing of Iran anymore. They dont have the backing of really anybody anymore. They have to be good, and if theyre not good, theyll be eradicated."

These remarks coincide with the diplomatic efforts of special envoy Steve Witkoff and senior adviser Jared Kushner, who are engaging with regional leaders in Israel to ensure the stability of Trump's 20-point peace initiative.

The diplomatic team held discussions with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who recently halted new entries into the Gaza region following the deaths of two Israeli soldiers in clashes over the weekend. In response, the Israeli military launched airstrikes, which Hamas claims resulted in 26 casualties.

Trump's team, credited with achieving an unexpected breakthrough in one of the globe's most volatile disputes, is now focused on preserving the agreement.

Vice President JD Vance is scheduled to arrive in Israel on Tuesday, reinforcing Trump's strategy and exerting additional pressure on Hamas to adhere to the terms. Unlike previous administrations that merely spoke of peace, Trump is actively enforcing it, underscoring that America's commitments carry significant consequences under his leadership.
