Trump on the situation in Gaza: Israel has the right to strike back if attacked

US President Donald Trump said that Israel has the right to respond to attacks by the Hamas group. Trump believes that this will not affect the ceasefire agreement. Source: Reuters Direct speech: “As I understand it, they killed an Israeli soldier. So the Israelis retaliated, and they have to retaliate. When this happens, they have to answer… No one knows what happened to the Israeli soldier, but they say it was sniper fire. And it was retaliation for that, and I think they have a right to that.” Details: But he said nothing would jeopardize the ceasefire: “You have to understand that Hamas is a very small part of the world in the Middle East and they have to behave themselves… If they (Hamas) are good, they will be happy, and if they are bad, they will be destroyed.” Gaza health authorities said at least 26 people were killed in the strikes. We will remind: Israel struck Gaza after accusing Hamas of violating the ceasefire. The Axios publication, citing its sources, reported that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu did not agree with US President Donald Trump on his decision to resume strikes on the Hamas group in the Gaza Strip, although he initially wanted to do so. On October 28, the Israeli side sent the White House and the CIA a video showing evidence of a staged “search for the bodies of the hostages” as proof that Hamas was violating the agreement, and warned that Israel should respond. Senior officials from the Trump administration responded that, in their opinion, this was not a gross violation of the agreement and asked Israel to refrain from radical measures that would call into question the entire ceasefire agreement, the interlocutor from the US shared. On October 28, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that Israel would resume strikes on the Gaza Strip. This was preceded by a firefight in the city of Rafah in the south of the Gaza Strip. Most of that area is under the control of the Israel Defense Forces, but Hamas militants are present in some underground tunnels.”, — write: www.pravda.com.ua
