U.S. President Donald Trump has given Hamas until Sunday evening to accept a ceasefire deal with Israel, warning of severe consequences if the group refuses.
President Donald Trump has imposed a deadline of 6 p.m. Washington, D.C. time on Sunday for Hamas to agree to a ceasefire deal aimed at ending the war in Gaza.
In a post on his Truth Social platform on Friday, Mr Trump said: “An Agreement must be reached with Hamas by Sunday Evening at SIX (6) P.M., Washington, D.C. time. Every Country has signed on! If this LAST CHANCE agreement is not reached, all HELL, like no one has ever seen before, will break out against Hamas. THERE WILL BE PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST ONE WAY OR THE OTHER.”
The White House has not yet provided further details on the nature of the agreement or which countries have backed it. It remains unclear whether Israel has formally endorsed the terms, or what actions might follow if Hamas fails to respond by the stated deadline.
The statement marks one of the strongest public warnings yet from Mr Trump since returning to office in January 2025, and follows weeks of intensified U.S. diplomatic efforts in the region.
Hamas has not responded publicly to the ultimatum. Talks brokered by Qatar, Egypt and the U.S. have stalled repeatedly in recent months amid continued Israeli military operations in southern Gaza.
Further updates are expected from The White House later on Friday.
