Hamas reacts to Trump victory, says he must ‘work seriously to stop the war’ in Gaza

The Palestinian terrorist group Hamas has called on the incoming Trump administration to take decisive action to end the conflict in the Gaza Strip. This statement comes in response to reports that Trump had urged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to resolve the conflict before his inauguration on Jan. 20.

Hamas emphasized the need for the new administration to halt the “war of genocide and aggression” against the Palestinian people in Gaza and the West Bank. They also called for an end to military support for Israel and recognition of the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people.

The group insisted that the Palestinian people will continue to resist the Israeli occupation and strive for freedom, independence, and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital.

According to a source from the Times of Israel, Trump conveyed his message to Netanyahu during a meeting at Mar-a-Lago in July. The Biden-Harris administration, which has been supportive of Israel, has criticized the IDF’s military operations and called for a ceasefire in the region.

It is essential for the new administration to address the ongoing conflict in the region and work towards a peaceful resolution that respects the rights of all parties involved.
