伦敦-如果哈马斯不在周六下午归还以色列人质停火将被终止，”以色列总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡星期二在与他的安全内阁开会后发表声明说。
内塔尼亚胡说:“我在内阁一致通过的决定是这样的:如果哈马斯不在周六下午之前归还我们的人质，停火将被终止，以色列国防军将恢复激烈的战斗，直到哈马斯最终被击败。”
内塔尼亚胡要求释放所有九名活着的以色列人质停火协议的第一阶段一名以色列官员告诉ABC新闻，他将在未来几天内被释放。哈马斯违反了协议;这位官员说，如果不释放以色列人质，协议的进一步执行或第二阶段的谈判将不会取得进展。
内塔尼亚胡发表声明之前，美国总统唐纳德·特朗普(Donald Trump)警告称，除非哈马斯在周六之前从加沙释放所有剩余人质，否则“一切都将爆发”。此前该组织宣布，在指责以色列违反停火协议后，它将推迟最新的释放计划。

特朗普周一在椭圆形办公室告诉记者，除非所有人质获释，否则放弃停火是“合适的”。“我会说，取消它，所有的赌注都取消了，让地狱爆发，”他说。
总统驳回了1月份协议中提出的“点滴”进程，该协议规定在三阶段停火期间释放小批人质，以换取以色列释放巴勒斯坦囚犯并从加沙部分地区撤军。
“我会说周六12点，我们希望他们都回来，”特朗普说。“我是为我自己说话。以色列可以推翻它。但从我自己来说，周六12点，如果他们不在，他们不在这里，所有的地狱都将爆发。”
作为回应，哈马斯高级官员萨米·阿布·祖赫里(Sami Abu Zuhri)在路透社援引的一份声明中表示，特朗普“必须记住，有一项协议必须得到尊重”。祖赫里补充说:“‘威胁’的语言没有任何价值，只会使事情复杂化。”。
奥巴马总统还警告说，那些仍被关押在加沙的人质可能身体状况不佳。
“谁知道呢?他们还活着吗?他们不是活着吗?但当我看到最后一批出来的情况时，我看到了这种情况，”特朗普说。“根据我过去两天的观察，他们现在活不了多久了。”
特朗普暗示，哈马斯已经先释放了最健康的俘虏。“他们有更多的东西要送出，他们可能觉得自己做不到，因为这不会让他们看起来很好，”他说。
周二，据宣布，2023年10月7日袭击事件中年龄最大的人质——86岁的什洛莫·曼祖尔(sh lomo mant zur)——已于当天被杀害。Mantzur的死讯是由他居住的Kissufim集体农场宣布的，后来被以色列国防军证实。
特朗普的最新说法是在哈马斯周一宣布将推迟计划于周六举行的下一次人质释放后做出的。
在一份声明中，哈马斯表示，推迟停火是为了向以色列发出“警告信息”，称以色列一再违反1月停火协议的条款。
哈马斯指责以色列阻止流离失所的加沙人返回加沙地带北部，阻止计划中的人道主义援助流入，并继续杀害“许多”巴勒斯坦人，尽管战斗已经暂停。
以色列国防部长伊斯雷尔·卡茨说，他指示以色列国防军做好“最高级别戒备”的准备，以应对哈马斯的宣布。
一名以色列官员告诉美国广播公司新闻，在周二召开安全内阁会议后，内塔尼亚胡指示以色列国防军“加强加沙地带及其周围的力量，并为任何情况做好准备”，如果哈马斯不释放“本周六的以色列人质”。
这位官员说，会议持续了大约四个小时，是“彻底而深入的”。
该官员补充说，所有内阁成员都表示支持特朗普的声明，即以色列人质应在周六中午前获释，并支持他“对加沙未来的革命性愿景”。
自冲突开始以来，哈马斯和以色列已经进行了五轮谈判。作为为期六周的最新停火协议第一阶段的一部分，33名以色列人质预计将被释放。该协议于1月15日达成。
自1月19日以来，16名活着的以色列人质被释放，其中包括一名双重国籍的美国公民，但已知33人中至少有8人已经死亡。作为停火协议第一阶段的一部分，包括一名美国人在内的九名男性人质仍未获释。作为协议的一部分，数百名巴勒斯坦囚犯在整个第一阶段被释放。
如果停火进入第二阶段，仍有56名男性人质留在加沙，其中26人已被宣布死亡。
停火动荡正值特朗普继续宣传他的有争议的计划将大约200万加沙人口永久迁移到该地区其他国家。
总统在福克斯新闻频道的一次录音采访中说，在加沙地带以外重新定居的加沙人不允许返回该地区，他说这将是“未来的房地产开发”。采访的部分内容于周一公布
周一在椭圆形办公室发表讲话时，总统没有重复他的断言，即巴勒斯坦人不会被赋予重返家园的权利，但继续坚持加沙人不想生活在被摧毁的领土上。
“我们已经和很多巴勒斯坦人谈过了，”特朗普说。“如果他们能找到一个地方，他们愿意离开加沙。我在离我们谈论的加沙地带不远的地方与不同国家的领导人交谈过，我认为他们对提供土地非常积极。”
特朗普说:“我们需要的是土地，如果我们能为人们建造一个安全生活的好地方，加沙的每个人都会这样做。”“你会看到他们都想离开，”他声称。
奥巴马总统的计划没有得到多少外国支持，埃及、约旦和沙特阿拉伯等主要地区伙伴都拒绝了这项提议。特朗普建议这些国家应该帮助加沙人在其领土上重新定居。
在整个以色列-哈马斯冲突期间，约旦一直是加沙平民的人道主义生命线，并且已经接纳了数百万已登记的巴勒斯坦难民。
总统周一告诉记者他可以“令人信服地”扣留对埃及和约旦的数十亿美元援助以迫使他们同意接纳从加沙流离失所的巴勒斯坦人。
总统周二在白宫接待了约旦国王阿卜杜拉二世特朗普表示将停止援助不到24小时后，总统说，“我不用用钱威胁。”
“我没有威胁，我不认为。我想我们已经超越了那个。我相信我们已经超越了这一点，”他说。
特朗普发表上述言论之前，阿卜杜拉在椭圆形办公室宣布，约旦将从加沙接收2000名儿童，但除此之外没有做出任何承诺。
“我认为我们可以马上做的事情之一是尽快将2000名癌症儿童或病情严重的儿童带到约旦。然后等待，我认为埃及人会提出他们的计划，告诉我们如何与总统合作，共同应对各种挑战。
哈马斯拒绝了特朗普的加沙计划，认为这是“荒谬的”。在一份声明中，该组织称总统的评论“反映了对巴勒斯坦和该地区的极度无知。加沙不是一块可以买卖的房地产;它是我们巴勒斯坦被占领土不可分割的一部分。”
据加沙当局称，自停火开始以来，已有近40万人返回北部.接受美国广播公司采访的巴勒斯坦人表示，他们渴望为自己重建加沙这是他们唯一称之为家的地方。
与此同时，内塔尼亚胡将特朗普的提议框定为“一个完全不同的愿景，一个对以色列国更好的愿景。”
内塔尼亚胡上周在白宫会见了特朗普，他形容该计划是“革命性的，创造性的，我们正在讨论它。他下定决心要实现它。这为我们提供了许多机会。”
Netanyahu warns 'ceasefire will be terminated,' Trump threatens 'hell' in Gaza if Hamas doesn't free hostages
LONDON --If Hamas doesn't return Israeli hostages by Saturday afternoon, "theceasefirewill be terminated," Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Tuesday in a statement following a meeting with his security cabinet.
"The decision that I passed unanimously in the cabinet is this: If Hamas does not return our hostages by Saturday afternoon -- the ceasefire will be terminated, and the IDF will return to intense fighting until Hamas is finally defeated," Netanyahu said.
Netanyahu is demanding all nine living Israeli hostages who were supposed to be released duringphase one of the ceasefire dealnow be released in the next few days, an Israeli official told ABC News. Hamas violated the agreement; therefore, there will be no progress in the further implementation of the agreement or in negotiations on the second phase of the deal without the return of Israeli hostages, according to the official.
Netanyahu's statement comes after President Donald Trump warned that "all hell is going to break out" unless Hamas releases all remaining hostages from Gaza by Saturday, following the group's announcement it would delay the latest planned release after accusing Israel of violating the ceasefire agreement.
Trump told reporters in the Oval Office on Monday that it would be "appropriate" to abandon the ceasefire unless all hostages are freed. "I would say, cancel it and all bets are off and let hell break out," he said.
The president dismissed the "drips and drabs" process set out in the January deal that slated small groups of hostages for release during the three-phase ceasefire, in exchange for Israel freeing Palestinian prisoners and withdrawing its forces from parts of Gaza.
"I would say Saturday at 12, we want them all back," Trump said. "I'm speaking for myself. Israel can override it. But from myself, Saturday at 12 o'clock, and if they're not, they're not here, all hell is going to break out."
In response, senior Hamas official Sami Abu Zuhri said Trump "must remember there is an agreement that must be respected," in a statement cited by Reuters. "The language of 'threats' has no value and only complicates matters," Zuhri added.
The president also warned that those hostages still being held in Gaza may not be in good physical condition.
"Who knows? Are they alive? Are they not alive? But I saw the condition when I saw the condition of the last ones that came out," Trump said. "They're not going to be alive right now, based on what I saw over the last two days, they're not going to be alive for long."
Trump suggested Hamas had released the healthiest captives first. "They've got more to send out, and they probably feel that they can't do that, because it's not going to make them look very good," he said.
On Tuesday, it was announced that the oldest hostage taken during the Oct. 7, 2023, attack -- Shlomo Mantzur, 86 -- had been killed that day. Mantzur's death was announced by the Kibbutz Kissufim where he lived and was later confirmed by the Israel Defense Forces.
Trump's latest assertion followed Hamas' Monday announcement that it would delay the next scheduled release of hostages, planned for Saturday.
In a statement, Hamas said the postponement was intended as a "warning message" to Israel, which it said had repeatedly violated the terms of the January ceasefire deal.
Hamas accused Israel of preventing the return of displaced Gazans to the north of the strip, blocking the planned influx of humanitarian aid and continuing to kill "many" Palestinians despite the pause in fighting.
Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said he instructed the IDF to prepare at the "highest level of alert" in response to Hamas' announcement.
Following the meeting of his security cabinet on Tuesday, Netanyahu instructed the IDF to "reinforce forces in and around the Gaza Strip and to prepare for any scenario" if Hamas does not release "the Israeli hostages this coming Saturday," an Israeli official told ABC News.
The meeting lasted about four hours and was "thorough and in-depth," the official said.
All the cabinet members expressed support for Trump's statement that Israeli hostages should be released by Saturday at noon and for his "revolutionary vision for the future of Gaza," the official added.
There have so far been five rounds of exchanges between Hamas and Israel since the conflict began. Thirty-three Israeli hostages are expected to be released as part of the first phase of the latest ceasefire agreement, due to last six weeks. The agreement was reached on Jan. 15.
Sixteen living Israeli hostages have been released since Jan. 19, including one dual American citizen, but at least eight of the 33 are known to be deceased. There are nine living male hostages, including one American, yet to be released by March 3 as part of the first phase of the ceasefire. Hundreds of Palestinian prisoners have also been released throughout phase one as part of the agreement.
If the ceasefire moves forward into phase two, there are still 56 male hostages who remain in Gaza, of which 26 have been declared dead.
The ceasefire turbulence comes as Trump continues to promote hiscontroversial planto permanently relocate Gaza's population -- around 2 million people -- to other regional nations.
The president said during a taped Fox News interview -- parts of which were released on Monday -- that Gazans resettled outside of the strip would not be allowed to return to the territory, which he has said will be "a real estate development for the future."
Pressed on his remarks in the Oval Office on Monday, the president did not repeat his assertion that Palestinians would not be given the right to return, but continued to insist that Gazans would not want to live in the devastated territory.
"We've spoken to a lot of Palestinians," Trump said. "They would love to leave Gaza if they could find a place to be. And I've spoken to various leaders of various countries in the not so distant area from where we're talking about the Gaza Strip, and I think they were very positive about providing land."
"What we need is land, and if we could build a nice place for people to live safely, everybody in Gaza would do it," Trump said. "You're going to see that they all want to leave," he claimed.
The president has found little foreign backing for his plan, with key regional partners like Egypt, Jordan and Saudi Arabia all rejecting the proposal. Trump has suggested that those countries should help resettle Gazans on their territory.
Jordan has served as a humanitarian lifeline for civilians in Gaza throughout the Israel-Hamas conflict and already hosts millions of registered Palestinian refugees.
The president told reporters on Mondayhe could "conceivably" withhold billions of dollars in aid to Egypt and Jordanto coerce them into agreeing to host Palestinians displaced from Gaza.
The presidenthosted Jordanian King Abdullah II at the White House on Tuesdayand, less than 24 hours after Trump said he would withhold aid,the president said, "I don't have to threaten with money."
"I don't have to threaten that, I don't think. I think we're above that. I do believe we're above that," he said.
Trump's comments came after Abdullah announced in the Oval Office that Jordan would take in 2,000 children from Gaza, but didn't commit to anything beyond that.
"I think one of the things that we can do right away is take 2,000 children that are either cancer children or in a very ill state to Jordan as quickly as possible. And then wait for, I think the Egyptians to present their plan on how we can work with the president to work on a collage of challenges," Abdullah said.
Hamas has rejected Trump's Gaza plan as "absurd." In a statement, the group said the president's comments "reflect a profound ignorance about Palestine and the region. Gaza is not a piece of real estate to be bought and sold; it is an inseparable part of our occupied Palestinian land."
Nearly 400,000 people have already returned to the north since the beginning of the ceasefire, according to Gazan authorities.Palestinians interviewed by ABC News said they yearn to rebuild Gaza for themselves, the only place they say they have or will ever call home.
Netanyahu, meanwhile, framed Trump's proposal as "a totally different vision, a much better one for the state of Israel."
Netanyahu -- who met with Trump at the White House last week -- described the plan as "revolutionary, creative -- and we're discussing it. He is very determined to carry it out. It opens up many opportunities for us."
