Trump tells Palestinians to release hostages or face 'hell'
Mar 06, 2025
US President Donald Trump on Wednesday told the people of Gaza to give up hostages or face "HELL" and told the Hamas militant group's leadership to flee the territory.
"To the People of Gaza: A beautiful Future awaits, but not if you hold Hostages. If you do, you are DEAD! Make a SMART decision. RELEASE THE HOSTAGES NOW, OR THERE WILL BE HELL TO PAY LATER!" Trump posted on his Truth Social platform.
In the same post, the US leader told Hamas to "release all of the Hostages now, not later, and immediately return all of the dead bodies of the people you murdered, or it is OVER for you."
"This is your last warning! For the leadership, now is the time to leave Gaza, while you still have a chance," he posted.
"I am sending Israel everything it needs to finish the job, not a single Hamas member will be safe if you don't do as I say," he wrote.
