“The Qataris and Egyptians, who have worked very hard to help bring Peace, will deliver this final proposal. I hope, for the good of the Middle East, that Hamas takes this Deal, because it will not get better — IT WILL ONLY GET WORSE,” the president concluded.

Israel has been at war with Hamas since the terrorist group attacked the Jewish state on Oct. 7, 2023.

The last cease-fire in Gaza was in effect from January 19 to March 18 of this year.
