Israeli-American Hostage SLAMS Netanyahu’s ‘Lies’ & Trump in Shocking New Hamas 'Propaganda' Video

Hamas has released a video of Israeli-American hostage Edan Alexander, held in Gaza since October 7, 2023. In the footage, Alexander accuses the Israeli government and former U.S. President Donald Trump of abandoning him. Slamming Prime Minister Netanyahu as a “dictator,” he claims he was told Hamas was ready to release him but that Israel refused. The video’s authenticity remains unverified. Israeli officials call it propaganda. So far, 38 hostages have been freed under a truce deal; Hamas insists more will be released only if the war ends completely. #Hamas #IsraelGazaWar #HostageVideo #EdanAlexander #Netanyahu #DonaldTrump #GazaHostage #MiddleEastCrisis #HamasPropaganda #PrisonerSwap #GazaCaptivity #HumanRights #IsraelPolitics #TrumpUnderFire #HostageCrisis #IsraelWar2025 #HamasVideoRelease #FreeTheHostages #PassoverCrisis #MiddleEastNews Also Read Netanyahu Warns Hamas As Israel Strikes Gaza Amid Truce Collapse: 'Negotiations Only Under Fire' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-warns-hamas-as-israel-strikes-gaza-amid-truce-collapse-negotiations-only-under-fire-4098633.html?ref=DMDesc Justice Department and FBI Establish Task Force to Investigate Hamas Following October 7 Attack :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/justice-department-fbi-task-force-hamas-october-7-attack-011-4097559.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Issues Last Warning To Hamas To Release All Remaining Hostages Held In Gaza :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-issues-last-warning-to-hamas-to-release-all-remaining-hostages-held-in-gaza-4087647.html?ref=DMDesc

‘The US can choose the course..’: Iran Drops Post-Meeting Bombshell After Talks With Trump Envoy

The U.S. and Iran have begun rare face-to-face nuclear talks in Oman, led by Trump envoy Steve Witkoff. The White House described the meeting as “constructive,” though it follows heavy U.S. military deployments, signaling a mix of diplomacy and pressure. Iran's uranium enrichment nears weapons-grade, prompting urgency. Trump’s administration insists on strict inspections and disarmament. Despite Tehran’s warnings and skepticism, further talks are set for April 19. Analysts suggest Iran is feeling the heat from increased U.S. and Israeli readiness for strikes if negotiations fail to limit its nuclear ambitions. #USIranTalks #TrumpEnvoy #IranNuclearDeal #OmanDiplomacy #SteveWitkoff #MiddleEastTensions #NuclearStandoff #TrumpReturns #ElonMusk #MarcoRubio #MilitaryPressure #IranUranium #B2Bombers #PeaceOrWar #ForeignPolicy #IAEA #WhiteHouse #AbbasAraghchi #OmanTalks #Geopolitics ~HT.96~ED.346~GR.124~
