Hamas has threatened to postpone the next hostage release scheduled to take place in Gaza on Saturday “until further notice,” accusing Israel of breaking the ceasefire deal. Israel has described the threatened postponement as a “complete violation of the ceasefire” and has called on the Israeli military to prepare for “any possible scenario” in Gaza.
US President Donald Trump has urged Israel to cancel the ceasefire and “let all hell break out” unless Hamas releases all remaining hostages by Saturday, a demand that goes beyond the deal hashed out between the militant group and Israel, injecting fresh uncertainty into an already fragile agreement.
