'Let hell break out': Trump threatens to axe Gaza truce if Israelis not released

US President Donald Trump has threatened to cancel the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas if the Palestinian group does not release the Israelis it holds captive by 12pm on Saturday. 

This comes after Hamas said it would delay the release of the next tranche of captives "until further notice", accusing Israel of failing to comply with the terms of the truce deal.

Trump told reporters on Monday that "all hell is going to break out" if the hostages are not returned on Saturday.

When questioned on what this would mean, Trump responded: "You’ll find out, and they’ll find out - Hamas will find out what I mean."
