Trump repeats warning to Hamas to release hostages soon or face consequences
Trump said he would discuss ways to bring an end to the Ukraine war with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky.
United States President-elect Donald Trump said on Monday that he had a "very good talk" with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, about the status of the war in Gaza.
Trump described it as a "recap call" ahead of his taking office on Jan. 20.
“We had a very good talk. And we discussed what is going to happen, and I’ll be very available on January 20 and we'll see," Trump said.
"As you know, I gave a warning that if these hostages aren't back home by that date, all hell is going to break out," he said.

Trump added that he would discuss ways to bring an end to the Ukraine war with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Trump on TikTok
Trump said on Monday that his administration will "take a look" at whether the Chinese-owned social media app TikTok should be banned in the United States.
