US President Donald Trump has met King Abdullah of Jordan at the White House. Speaking about the current Gaza ceasefire situation, Trump said he did not believe Hamas will meet the Saturday deadline to return Israeli hostages. "I have a Saturday deadline, and I don't think they're going to make the deadline personally," the president says, adding: "I think they want to play tough guy, but we'll see how tough they are". Earlier, Trump said "hell" would breakout if Hamas did not return all hostages by 12pm on Saturday. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said the Gaza ceasefire will end if Hamas does not release Israeli hostages on Saturday. Hamas said on Monday it would not release three Israelis as planned this weekend, because of alleged Israeli violations of the ceasefire.
