Hamas is accusing the Trump administration of betrayal after the release of American-Israeli soldier Edan Alexander. In a shocking revelation, senior Hamas official Basem Naim claims that Trumpâs envoy promised to lift the Gaza blockade, allow humanitarian aid, and publicly call for a ceasefire in exchange for the hostageâs release. But according to Hamas, the U.S. âthrew the deal in the trashâ and delivered none of its commitments.

Survivors of Hamas captivity are calling on Prime Minister Netanyahu, President Trump, and envoy Steve Witkoff to act urgently following Edan Alexander's release. In a passionate letter signed by 65 former hostages, they urged leaders not to waste the moment and to halt military action if it means saving the remaining captives. While Trump negotiates new Middle East deals, pressure mounts to prioritize the hostages. With several Americans still held or declared dead, the plea emphasizes cross-border urgency. Netanyahuâs office has not responded to the emotional appeal for a comprehensive deal.

Israeli-American Edan Alexander, who has been released by Hamas after 19 months in captivity has snubbed Israeli PM Natanyahu. This despite Netanyahu hailing his release as a "very emotional moment," reports say Edan has refused a personal meeting with him, citing physical and emotional exhaustion. Edan, was freed on May 12 in what Hamas called a goodwill gesture to Donald Trump, who is currently visiting the region. The release follows complex U.S.-Israel-Qatar-Egypt negotiations and raises new hopes for the remaining hostages and potential peace talks.

Edan Alexander, a 19-year-old American-Israeli soldier and IDF combat medic, was taken hostage by Hamas during the October 7 attack that ignited the Israel-Gaza war. After 583 harrowing days held underground in Gaza, often in brutal conditions, Edan has finally been freed. This video covers the emotional reunion with his family, the covert negotiations said to be led by Trumpâs team, and what his release means for the remaining hostages and ongoing ceasefire talks.

Just hours after U.S. President Trump announced a ceasefire between Iran and Israel, Tehran launched a fresh barrage of ballistic missiles, directly violating the truce. Sirens blared across northern Israel as the IDF intercepted the missiles mid-air, preventing casualties. Israel's war cabinet convened an emergency meeting, vowing severe retaliation. Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and far-right leaders demanded forceful strikes on Tehran, declaring the ceasefire dead. The sudden attack has reignited fears of full-scale war in the region.

In a moment that instantly went viral, U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance raised his middle fing@r on live TV during a fiery GOP event in Lima, Ohioâjust moments after Donald Trump dropped an F-bomb over the broken Iran-Israel ceasefire. Vance used the gesture to mock Washingtonâs political culture, joking, âIn D.C., this means weâre number one!â He took direct aim at âpink-haired people,â a jab widely interpreted as a swipe at progressive critics.
