Trump’s Shocking Ultimatum Brings Israel, Hamas Back to Negotiating Table| Will Hamas Free Hostages?

Trump’s unexpected intervention has pushed Israel and Hamas back to the negotiating table. The intense pressure from Trump’s ultimatum, calling for a ceasefire extension and the release of hostages, has led both sides to resume high-stakes talks in Doha, Qatar. Israel has sent a delegation with the hope of securing the release of American-Israeli hostage Edan Alexander and others held by Hamas, in exchange for a 60-day ceasefire extension. While Israel seeks the safe return of hostages, Hamas is demanding further concessions, including the release of 24 presumed-living hostages and a permanent end to the war. #TrumpIsraelHamasWar #IsraelHamasCeasefire #HamasIsraelConflict #IsraelGazaWar #CeasefireDeal #HamasTruce #IsraelHostageDeal #GazaCeasefire #MiddleEastCrisis #IsraelHamasWarUpdate #HamasIsraelCeasefire #IsraelGazaConflict #TruceNegotiations #HostageCrisis #PeaceTalks Also Read 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 Israel Halts Supply Entry To Gaza, Warns Of Further Action If Hamas Rejects Ceasefire Deal :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-halts-supply-entry-to-gaza-warns-of-further-action-if-hamas-rejects-ceasefire-deal-4084551.html?ref=DMDesc Israel: Speeding Vehicle Rams Pedestrians, Injures Several In 'Suspected Terror Attack' In Haifa :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-speeding-vehicle-rams-pedestrians-injures-several-in-suspected-terror-attack-in-haifa-4082487.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~HT.336~GR.124~

Houthi leader Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi has given mediators a strict four-day deadline to ensure the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza.
