Trump supported Israel’s strikes in response to Hamas attacks, ceasefire not under threat

Donald Trump, during a press interaction on October 29, 2025, expressed support for Israel following the recent strike on Gaza. The American leader noted that such actions are justified in response to Hamas attacks.

Retaliatory Strike and Its Consequences

Trump emphasized that an Israeli soldier was killed, and retaliatory measures were inevitable. He stated that Israel must defend itself when faced with such threats. The question of a possible truce breakdown was met with a confident response: nothing will jeopardize it.

In Trump’s opinion, Hamas represents only a small part of the Middle Eastern world. He added that if they behave decently, everything will be fine. Otherwise, they face destruction.

International Support and Prospects

The US President noted that many countries are ready to support efforts to stabilize the region. Even Japan expressed a desire to participate, offering expert assistance. This underscores international interest in resolving the conflict.

Work on Disarmament

Trump reported that steps are already being taken to disarm Hamas. He noted that this is part of the second phase, which has already begun. However, he emphasized that Hamas is only a small part of the Middle Eastern world, and peace in the region is possible.

The President expressed hope for a peaceful resolution but did not rule out the possibility of destroying Hamas if necessary. The concluded agreement remains in force, and preference is given to diplomatic methods.
