In a stark warning, US President Donald Trump on Thursday said that if Hamas continued to kill people in Gaza, then he has left with no choice but “to go in and kill them.” Trump’s strong reaction came after a few videos on social media went viral, capturing Hamas terrorists executing members of rival groups in Gaza. “If Hamas continues to kill people in Gaza, which was not the Deal, we will have no choice but to go in and kill them,” Trump wrote in a social media post.

However, the Republican leader later clarified to reporters in the Oval Office that the US military would not be the one to target Hamas.”Somebody will go in,” Trump said, adding that “it’s not going to be us.”The US president added that Hamas is returning the bodies of hostages to Israel. “They also said they’re going to behave,” he said. “We’re going to find out if they behave, if they behave good. If they don’t behave, we’ll take care of it.”Trump’s threat of potential strikes against the terrorist group came amid his conflicting statements in recent days about how US will implement the next steps of a ceasefire. As the US president is planning to end the war in Gaza, several US reports claimed that Hamas is fighting against its rival groups to assert its dominance. The violent approach of Hamas towards its rival groups has fueled several questions over how Trump will manage to guarantee peace in Gaza.
