President Donald Trump said Hamas must agree to a proposed peace deal for Gaza by Sunday evening and threatened that the group will face more attacks if it does not.

“An Agreement must be reached with Hamas by Sunday Evening at SIX (6) P.M., Washington, D.C. time,” Trump wrote on Friday on social media. “Every Country has signed on! If this LAST CHANCE agreement is not reached, all HELL, like no one has ever seen before, will break out against Hamas. THERE WILL BE PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST ONE WAY OR THE OTHER.”
The Republican president unveiled the plan alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu earlier this week.
Trump’s proposal would place Gaza under control of a temporary governing committee led by Trump himself. Former British prime minister Tony Blair would be involved as well.
Civilians would not be required to evacuate the territory, something that Trump had floated before. Hamas would be required to disarm and release any remaining hostages. Surviving fighters would be allowed to leave.
