Jerusalem, 20 October (LaPresse) – Yesterday, aboard Air Force One, US President Donald Trump told reporters that Hamas behaved in a ‘rather turbulent’ manner and ‘opened fire’ in the incident in Rafah, in the south of the Gaza Strip. He suggested that the violence could be the fault of ‘rebels’ within the organisation rather than its leadership. ‘The matter will be handled firmly but appropriately,’ he assured. Trump did not specify whether he considers the Israeli attacks in response to be justified, stating that ‘the matter is under review.’
