US President Donald Trump is pressing Israel and Hamas to seal a settlement to the two-year conflict that's devastated Gaza. "I am told that the first phase should be completed this week," Trump said in a post on social media platform Truth Social, adding that discussions on the peace deal have been "very positive" and he is pressing all parties to move quickly.
Trump has made it clear that he is losing patience with both Hamas and Israel.
The US president called Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu over the weekend to celebrate Hamas' apparent willingness to release the hostages, Axios reported on Sunday, but the PM complained the offer was meaningless. Trump, according to the report, snapped at Netanyahu for being "negative," and added, "This is a win. Take it."
The Israeli military has assumed a defensive posture in Gaza City, while Hamas said airstrikes continued in the enclave, killing dozens.
