Trump gives Hamas Sunday deadline to accept Gaza peace plan

US President Donald Trump has given Hamas a deadline to accept a US peace plan for Gaza or face "all hell".

Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform on Friday that an agreement must be reached by 18:00 Washington time (22:00 GMT) on Sunday.

The plan proposes an immediate end to fighting and the release within 72 hours of 20 living Israeli hostages held by Hamas - as well as the remains of hostages thought to be dead - in exchange for hundreds of detained Gazans.
