President Trump warned Thursday that the United States will have \u201cno choice\u201d but to use lethal force against Hamas if the militant group does not stop its renewed violence in Gaza.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIf Hamas continues to kill people in Gaza, which was not the Deal, we will have no choice but to go in and kill them. Thank you for your attention to this matter!\u201d Trump wrote on Truth Social.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The warning comes amid reports that Hamas has reasserted control in Gaza, launching a campaign of retribution following Israel\u2019s withdrawal under a U.S.-brokered ceasefire. According to Reuters, Hamas fighters have killed at least 33 people since the ceasefire began last week. One widely circulated video showed several men being dragged into a Gaza City square and executed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On Wednesday, the U.S. military also issued a stern message to Hamas, urging the group to \u201cimmediately suspend violence and shooting at innocent Palestinian civilians in Gaza.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Residents in Gaza told Fox News Digital that Hamas fighters have returned to the streets and issued an ultimatum to suspected Israeli collaborators, giving them until Sunday to surrender and seek amnesty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hamas has also failed to uphold its agreement to return all deceased hostages to Israel. Families of the victims described the ongoing wait as \u201ctorturous.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On Thursday\u2019s episode of Fox & Friends<\/em>, Orna Neutra \u2014 the mother of Israel Defense Forces Capt. Omer Neutra \u2014 said it is \u201cdevastating\u201d to wait for her son\u2019s remains to be returned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe came here on Sunday, prepared to receive him on Monday and, as the day went by and only four hostages were released, and our son wasn\u2019t among them, it was devastating,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Omer Neutra, a fallen platoon commander, is one of two American citizens whose bodies have not yet been returned by Hamas under the first phase of the peace deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
