Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and U.S. President Donald Trump appeared on Friday to abandon Gaza ceasefire negotiations with Hamas, both saying it had become clear that the Palestinian militants did not want a deal.

US President Donald Trump has blamed Hamas for the collapse of the latest ceasefire talks in Gaza, calling for Israel to “finish the job” and eliminate the militant group. Speaking to reporters before leaving for a trip to Scotland, Trump said, “They want to die... you’re gonna have to get rid of them.”
