Trump promises 'hell to pay' if Gaza hostages not promptly released
United States President-elect Donald Trump has promised 'there will be hell to pay' if captives held in Gaza during Israel’s ongoing war are not released by the time he takes office on January 20.
The statement on Monday was Trump’s most forceful on the deadlocked efforts to bring an end to the war since the November 5 US elections and comes amid reports that he is pushing for a ceasefire to be reached before his second term begins.
