President Trump posted on Truth Social Wednesday, issuing his "last warning" to Hamas, demanding the immediate release of all hostages held in Gaza. He threatened "hell to pay" if they aren’t freed, repeating earlier rhetoric. This follows White House confirmation of U.S. direct talks with Hamas, a shift from prior policy, aimed at securing American hostages & ending the conflict.

The situation remains tense, with 24 living hostages, including American Edan Alexander, & at least 35 bodies still held in Gaza, per Israeli estimates.
