Hamas has so far released 21 hostages, including civilians, soldiers, and five Thai nationals during the ceasefire that began on January 19.
The deadline for the end of phase one during which it was agreed 33 hostages would be released is looming as already 21 have been freed.
In his usual mendacious way Trump appears to be trying to wind up Hamas into breaching the ceasefire and that may suit Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
As of Sunday, February 9, 73 of the 251 hostages abducted by Hamas on October 7 remain in Gaza, including the bodies of at least 34 confirmed dead by the IDF.
Protestors taking to the streets in Tel Aviv, demanding hostages be released, hope to persuade Netanyahu that politically he needs to listen to them.
