The president seems undisturbed by the terrorist group’s murderous campaign against dissidents. In fact, he seems to admire it.

While President Donald Trump has declared the Israel-Hamas war over, some Middle East experts say the process to end the two-year conflict is just beginning.

Hamas has not yet publicly agreed to or signed anything that specifies how it would disarm, but Trump suggested he had received verbal assurances the group would.

Trump assured reporters that Hamas would disarm under his peace agreement or he would disarm them 'perhaps violently.'

Hamas released all 20 living Israeli hostages Monday, and Israel released more than 1,900 Palestinian prisoners as part of a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip. U.S. President Donald Trump visited the region to discuss postwar plans.

Another Trump administration official is touting the president’s lack of sleep. On Fox News Tuesday, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard reflected on Trump’s last few days, during which he went to and from Egypt—about an 11-hour flight—to mark the Israel-Hamas peace deal.

President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that he had communicated to Hamas they must disarm or it will be forced to disarm.

The U.S. military's Middle East command on Wednesday called on Hamas to stop its violence against civilians in Gaza and disarm "without delay" as the militant group reasserts itself by deploying security forces and executing those it deems collaborators with Israel.
