US President Donald Trump warned that "all hell" will break loose if Hamas does not release Gaza hostages by Saturday noon, calling for the ceasefire deal’s cancellation. While stating that Israel has the final say, Trump claimed many hostages may already be dead. His remarks follow his controversial proposal for US "ownership" of Gaza, turning it into the "Riviera of the Middle East." Arab nations, including Egypt and Jordan, have rejected his plan. A senior Hamas official dismissed Trump’s comments as "absurd" and accused him of treating the Palestinian cause like a real estate deal.

US President Donald Trump said Palestinians will have no right to return to Gaza under his takeover plan. "No, they wouldn’t, because they’re going to have much better housing," he told Fox News. He suggested relocating them outside Gaza, calling it a “real estate development for the future.” The UN warned that forced displacement is illegal and "tantamount to ethnic cleansing." Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu praised the plan as "revolutionary." Palestinian officials rejected it, saying, "Our land is not for sale." Germany also condemned it, calling the proposal a “scandal” and a violation of international law.

Hamas announced it would halt Israeli hostage releases, citing ceasefire violations by Israel, including blocking displaced Palestinians' return to northern Gaza and restricting aid. Hamas spokesperson Abu Ubaida stated that Israel must "comply and compensate for the past weeks." Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant called the decision a violation of the ceasefire. The Hostages and Missing Family Forum urged mediators to reinstate the deal, warning that time is critical. Meanwhile, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas ended stipends to families of Palestinian prisoners in a move to improve ties with the US.

Canada and Australia have raised concerns about economic damage. More details on the tariffs are expected soon.
