US President Donald Trump said on Sunday that Israel must decide on its next steps in Gaza, adding that he does not know what will happen after Israel withdraws from ceasefire negotiations and releases hostages with the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas).
According to Reuters, Trump stressed the importance of releasing the hostages held by Hamas in Gaza, saying they had suddenly demonstrated a "tough" stance on the issue.
"They don't want to take them back, so Israel will have to make a decision," Trump told reporters at the start of a meeting with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen at his Turnberry, Scotland, golf resort.
