Trump warns Hamas
The message from the State Department comes a couple of days after the President of the United States, Donald Trump, threatened to “go and kill” Hamas members after clashes with rival militias were reported in the Gaza Strip following the withdrawal of the Israeli army, within the framework of the ceasefire agreement agreed upon under the US plan.
“If Hamas continues killing people in Gaza, which was not in the agreement, we will have no choice but to go and kill them,” the Republican magnate said Thursday in a brief message published on his profile on the Truth Social network.
With this statement, Trump appears to have changed his stance, as earlier this week he expressed support for Hamas’ executions against other groups in the Gaza Strip, celebrating their “elimination of a couple of gangs that were very bad.” “It didn’t bother me much, to be honest,” he said during a press conference from the White House.
