00:00Thank you, sir. Next, we have U.S. President Donald Trump said that the ceasefire agreement
00:05between Israel and Hamas should be canceled if Hamas doesn't release all the remaining
00:09hostages by midday on Saturday. The militant group accused Israel of not holding up its end
00:16of the deal and said the delay served as a warning signal, giving mediators five days
00:21to pressure Israel to act. Well, I would say this and I'm going to let that because that's
00:27Israel's decision. But as far as I'm concerned, if all of the hostages aren't returned by
00:34Saturday at 12 o'clock, I think it's an appropriate time.
00:38I would say cancel it and all bets are off and let hell break out.
00:44When a reporter asked if he would consider withholding aid from Jordan and Egypt if
00:49they don't agree to take in Palestinians, Trump said he would.
00:53Yeah, maybe. Sure. Why not? I mean, if they don't agree,
00:58if they don't agree, I would I would conceivably withhold aid.
01:02Trump's latest comment comes shortly after he doubled down on his plan to buy
01:06Gaza, which drew international backlash.
