US President Donand Trump said this in a lengthy post on his Truth Social platform on Wednesday that he is sending Israel everything it needs to finish the job, not a single Hamas member will be safe if they don't do as he says. 

It comes just hours after the White House confirmed it is holding direct talks with Hamas over the hostages. 

Washington has until now avoided direct engagement with the group, and there is a longstanding US policy against having direct contact with entities it lists as terrorist Organisations. 

Meanwhile, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed the US has been negotiating directly with Hamas to try to secure the release of the hostages.
