Trump Urges Israel to Halt Bombing

Following the release of a statement from Hamas, former US President Donald Trump has expressed optimism regarding the possibility of a lasting peace, urging Israel to immediately halt its bombing campaign in Gaza.

In a post on his social media platform, “Truth Social” Trump stated he believes Hamas’ recent declaration signals a willingness to pursue a durable peace. He specifically called for Israel to “immediately stop” the bombardment of Gaza to facilitate the secure and swift release of hostages.

Trump’s statement indicated ongoing discussions regarding detailed arrangements. He emphasized that the potential agreement extends beyond the immediate situation in Gaza, encompassing a broader, long-sought peace in the Middle East.

The Hamas statement preceding Trump’s remarks conveyed a willingness to release all hostages but stipulated further negotiations would be necessary.
