US President-Elect Donald Trump said that Israel and Hamas were “very close” to securing a deal, “maybe by the end of the week,” in a telephone interview with Newsmax’s Rob Schmitt on Monday. “If they don’t get it done, there’s going to be a lot of trouble out there,” Trump said – “A lot of trouble like they’ve never seen before” “I understand there’s been a handshake and they’re getting it finished and maybe by the end of the week, but it has to take place,” he added.
