Donald Trump has warned Hamas to “behave or be eradicated”, after US envoys flew to the Middle East to salvage a fragile ceasefire in Gaza.
The US president’s stark warning came after a series of killings in the Gaza Strip threatened to derail the peace process that saw the 20 remaining living hostages finally freed last week. The Israeli military confirmed that the body of another dead captive had been received after it was handed over by Hamas on Monday evening, via the Red Cross.
