Trump Urges Israel to  "Finish The Job" in Gaza

Donald Trump has taken a firm stance on the conflict in Gaza, urging Israel to step up its military operations against Hamas

During visit to Scotland, Trump said, “I think they want to die, and it’s very, very bad. It got to be to a point where you’re gonna have to finish the job”

He added, “They’re gonna have to fight and they’re gonna have to clean it up. You’re gonna have to get rid of ‘em,” directing his message to Israel

Days before this, the US decided to withdraw from ongoing ceasefire discussions in the region. This was reportedly due to the lack of progress from Hamas

Despite the negotiations falling apart, Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu insisted that they are in favor of a ceasefire

The situation in Gaza has garnered global attention and has been described as a humanitarian crisis

In response to the crisis, France and the United Kingdom have demanded that Israel ease restrictions on humanitarian aid entering Gaza
