US and Israel Ramp Up Pressure on Hamas: Demanding Immediate Hostage Release Amid Fragile Ceasefire

WASHINGTON D.C (VINnews)-Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is vowing the “gates of hell” will open in Gaza if all hostages held by Hamas are not released. When asked on Meet The Press today if the ceasefire and hostage release deal stands, Secretary of State Marco Rubio says, “We are not in favor of waiting weeks and weeks” to see all hostages released.

“That may be the process that’s in place because of the deal, but we would like to see them all out as soon as possible, and we continue to coordinate.”
