Israel's Defense Minister Issues Grim Ultimatum to Hamas Following Trump's Statement - Defense Minister of Israel delivers a "final ultimatum" to Hamas
The ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip continues to dominate headlines, with both parties engaged in negotiations for a potential ceasefire agreement.
The latest development came last week when the US special envoy, Steve Witkoff, presented a new ceasefire proposal to Hamas, which included a hostage release. However, the White House has yet to disclose the details of this proposal. Over the past weekend, no further information regarding a new ceasefire offer or its key demands has been made public.
The conflict began on October 7, 2023, when Hamas launched a large-scale attack on Israel, resulting in the hostage-taking of 251 people. As of Sunday, 47 of these hostages remain in the Gaza Strip.
Following the attack, Israel's Defense Minister issued a "final warning" to Hamas, threatening further attacks on Gaza. The US President also called for Hamas to agree to a release agreement for the Israeli hostages held in the Gaza Strip.
Hamas has expressed its readiness for immediate negotiations on a ceasefire agreement, following the US President's warning. The terror group has demanded a clear declaration of the end of the war and a full withdrawal of the Israeli army from the Gaza Strip as part of the ceasefire agreement negotiations.
It is important to note that the US President, Donald Trump, has not been directly mentioned in the context of the ceasefire proposal or the ongoing conflict.
The Israeli military claims that at least 25 of the hostages have died, and the Israeli army is preparing to expand its operation to capture the city of Gaza. Hamas authorities claim that more than 64,300 people have been killed so far in Israel's military operations in the Gaza Strip, but this claim cannot be independently verified.
Israel's Defense Minister also warned that a devastating hurricane will hit the skies over the city of Gaza, causing the roofs of terror towers to tremble.
The ongoing conflict has led to widespread destruction and loss of life in the Gaza Strip, and both parties are under pressure to reach a peaceful resolution as soon as possible. The international community continues to call for an immediate ceasefire and the release of the remaining hostages.
