Far-right Israeli politician calls for the 'fire of hell' to be unleashed on Gaza

Far-right Israeli politician Itamar Ben-Gvir has lashed out at the planned release of just three Israeli captives from Gaza, demanding that Israel push for the full implementation of Trump’s call for Hamas to free all captives by the weekend.
“The Israeli government has the full backing of the president of the world’s greatest power to demand the release of all hostages by Saturday at 12:00 – and you settle for three?!” he wrote on X.
“This kind of weakness is unacceptable! It’s time for action, not words. If Hamas doesn’t release everyone, unleash the fire of hell on them!”
Ben-Gvir resigned from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s cabinet in January in protest against the ceasefire agreement in Gaza.
