President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met in Florida on Monday, a high-stakes gathering that ended without a breakthrough on the next phase of the Gaza peace plan.
Instead, the meeting was marked by a stark ultimatum delivered by the American president to Hamas and a historic announcement regarding Israel’s highest civilian honor.
While the leaders announced no tangible progress on the deal’s second phase—which centers on the disarmament of Hamas, the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip, and the establishment of a post-war governing body—President Trump did not mince words regarding the militant group’s future.
Speaking to reporters following the meeting, Trump declared that Hamas would be granted only “a very short period of time” to voluntarily lay down its arms. He issued a severe warning regarding the consequences of non-compliance, stating that if the group refuses to disarm, the nations supporting the current ceasefire “will go and wipe them out.”
