U.S. President Donald Trump stated on Sunday that Israel must decide its next move in Gaza following the breakdown of ceasefire and hostage-release negotiations with Hamas. Speaking during a meeting with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen in Scotland, Trump emphasized the urgency of securing the release of hostages held by Hamas and accused the militant group, without evidence, of stealing and selling food aid.
Trump confirmed Washington would send additional humanitarian aid to Gaza but urged other nations, particularly in Europe, to contribute. He lamented the lack of acknowledgment for U.S. aid efforts, saying, “Nobody said thank you.”
The United Nations estimates Israeli forces have killed over 1,000 people at aid distribution sites run by the private Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, which employs former U.S. military veterans. More than 130 Gazans, including 87 children, have died from malnutrition since Israel’s assault began, according to Gaza’s health ministry. Former President Barack Obama called for unrestricted aid access, saying there is “no justification” for denying civilians food and water.
The conflict reignited in October 2023 when Hamas attacked Israel, killing 1,200 and taking around 250 hostages. Israel’s retaliatory campaign has since killed nearly 60,000 Palestinians, displaced the population of Gaza, and triggered accusations of genocide and war crimes, which Israel denies.
Trump suggested Hamas leaders would now be “hunted down” and hinted Israel must “finish the job.” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed ceasefire talks had stalled and said Israel was considering “alternative” options to end Hamas rule in Gaza and secure hostage releases, as starvation and devastation continue across the enclave.
