US President Donald Trump threatened to cancel the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip if the Israeli prisoners were not released, indicating that next Saturday it may be considered a final date, and he also waved to cut aid from Jordan and Egypt.
“If all hostages are not returned from Gaza by 12 pm on Saturday, I will call to cancel the ceasefire,” Trump said in a series of statements made on Monday at the White House.
He reiterated his previous threats that “the gates of hell will open if the hostages are no longer from Gaza.”
He continued, “I may talk to (Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin) Netanyahu about the consideration of a final date.”

On the other hand, Trump repeated talking about his proposal to displace the Palestinians from the Gaza Strip to Egypt and Jordan, waving this time to cut aid to the two countries.

This comes in light of an Arab and Islamic rejection of Trump’s plan, which he said – one – is seeking “to buy and possess Gaza” in order to rebuild it, as he stressed that the Palestinians out of the Strip without having the right to return.
