"The Israelis bombed a hospital in Gaza that killed 20 people, including five journalists, began a reporter as Trump asked, When did this happen? This happened overnight today, added the reporter as Trump noted, I didn't know that. Any reaction to this? asked the reporter. Well, I'm not happy about it. I don't want to see it. At the same time, we have to end that whole nightmare."
"I'm the one that got the hostages out. I got them out. All of them, Trump replied. Notably, Hamas continues to hold hostages taken on October 7th, and former President Joe Biden was in office when many of the other hostages were initially released. Steve Witkoff has been amazing. He's done a great job. But I'm the one that's got them all out, through my people and through me, Trump bizarrely continued, adding:"
"Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu released a statement on the hospital bombing and the subsequent bombing of rescue workers at the scene, which was caught on video. Israel deeply regrets the tragic mishap that occurred today at the Nasser Hospital in Gaza,' Netanyahu posted in English, adding: Israel values the work of journalists, medical staff, and all civilians. The military authorities are conducting a thorough investigation. Our war is with Hamas terrorists. Our just goals are defeating Hamas and bringing our hostages home."
An Israeli airstrike on a Gaza hospital killed 20 people, including five journalists, and rescue workers were subsequently struck on site, footage showed.

Hamas continues to hold hostages taken on October 7, and multiple other releases occurred while Joe Biden was president. Trump warned that remaining captives might be dead if released late and described the situation as nasty and horrible. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expressed deep regret, affirmed a military investigation, and said the goal remains defeating Hamas and recovering hostages.
