United States of America President-elect, Donald Trump, has warned of serious repercussions if Gaza militants fail to release hostages by the time he is sworn-in.
Trump wants the militants to understand that he would not be
applying the same diplomacy being used by outgoing President Joe Biden’s
administration that has so far failed.
The Biden administration has not been successful in securing
a deal that would both end Israel’s war in Gaza and free hostages seized 14
months ago.
“If the hostages are not released prior to January 20, 2025,
the date that I proudly assume Office as President of the United States, there
will be ALL HELL TO PAY in the Middle East, and for those in charge who
perpetrated these atrocities against Humanity,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social
platform.
“Those responsible will be hit harder than anybody has been
hit in the long and storied History of the United States of America. RELEASE
THE HOSTAGES NOW!”
Trump has vowed staunch support for Israel and to dispense
with Biden’s occasional criticism, but has also spoken of his desire to secure
deals on the world stage.
The militants are still holding about 97 people hostage in
Gaza.
Israel’s retaliatory campaign has killed 44,429 people in
Gaza, according to figures from the territory’s health ministry that the United
Nations considers reliable.
