“They Made the Deal Possible”<\/strong>
\nFreed hostage Eli Sharabi said upon arrival: “Today, we came to the White House as survivors of captivity to ensure that the remaining 59 hostages are freed in a deal as soon as possible. Thank you, President Trump and Mr. Witkoff, for your commitment to this cause.”<\/p>\n

Freed hostage Keith Siegel added, “They made the deal possible and brought us all home. We urge them to continue their tremendous efforts. They have already done so much. We trust them and know they will finish the mission and bring back the 59 hostages still in Gaza to their families, back to Israel. Thank you, President Trump. Thank you, Mr. Steve Witkoff, and thank you to the entire Trump administration.”<\/p>\n

President Trump\u2019s Message to Hamas<\/strong>
\nFollowing the meeting, the U.S. president posted a message to Hamas on his social media platform “TruthSocial”, warning them to release all hostages or it would be over for them.<\/p>\n

“Only sick and twisted people keep bodies” he continued. “I am sending Israel everything it needs to finish the job, not a single Hamas member will be safe if you don\u2019t do as I say. I have just met with your former Hostages whose lives you have destroyed. This is your last warning! For the leadership, now is the time to leave Gaza, while you still have a chance. Also, to the People of Gaza: A beautiful Future awaits, but not if you hold Hostages. If you do, you are dead<\/em>! Make a smart<\/em> decision.<\/p>\n

Release the hostages now, or there will be hell to pay later!<\/em><\/p>\n
