President Donald Trump made a social media post about Hamas on Sunday evening, minutes before the deadline for a peace proposal passed.
The deadline was 6 p.m. ET Sunday. In a message on Truth Social, Trump wrote that there had been “very positive discussions with Hamas, and Countries from all over the World (Arab, Muslim, and everyone else) this weekend, to release the Hostages, end the War in Gaza but, more importantly, finally have long sought PEACE in the Middle East.”
“These talks have been very successful, and proceeding rapidly,” Trump said. “The technical teams will again meet Monday, in Egypt, to work through and clarify the final details.”
The president added that the first phase of the peace plan “should be completed this week.”

“If this LAST CHANCE agreement is not reached, all HELL, like no one has ever seen before, will break out against Hamas,” Trump wrote. “THERE WILL BE PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST ONE WAY OR THE OTHER. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
The peace proposal was unveiled by Trump in late September.
The plan calls for an end to Israel’s military operations, the disarmament of Hamas and the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip under a Palestinian governing body overseen by a U.S.-led international coalition.
