Trump says ceasefire deal should be cancelled if Hamas doesn't release all hostages by February 15

New Indian Express  

WASHINGTON: President Donald Trump said Monday that a precarious ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas should be cancelled if Hamas doesn't release all the remaining hostages it is holding in Gaza by midday on Saturday, though he also said that such a decision would be up to Israel. But asked if the US would join in a response to Hamas if hostages weren't freed, Trump added, "Hamas will find out what I mean." Those comments came after Trump said in an interview with Fox News Channel that Palestinians in Gaza would not have a right to return under his plan for US ownership of the war-torn territory contradicting other officials in his administration who have sought to argue Trump was only calling for the temporary relocation of its population. Less than a week after he floated his plan for the US to take control of Gaza and turn it into the Riviera of the Middle East, Trump, in an interview with Fox News' Bret Baier airing Monday, said that No, they wouldn't”when asked if Palestinians in Gaza would have a right to return to the territory.
