Trump reveals Hamas has moved hostages above ground to allegedly use as human shields: an 'atrocity'

President Donald Trump on Monday said he has heard that the terrorist organization Hamas has moved Israeli hostages above-ground in order to use them as human shields to block ground attacks from Israel.

Trump first made the revelation on Truth Social but repeated it while speaking to reporters during a signing ceremony in the Oval Office where he established a federal "task force" to crack down on crime in Memphis. 

The president warned Hamas that "all bets" would be off if they do use hostages as shields, claiming that doing so was an "atrocity," and repeated his demand for the organization to release all hostages immediately.

"I have just read a News Report that Hamas has moved the hostages above ground to use them as human shields against Israel’s ground offensive," Trump wrote on Truth Social. "I hope the leaders of Hamas know what they’re getting into if they do such a thing. This is a human atrocity, the likes of which few people have ever seen before. Don’t let this happen or, ALL 'BETS' ARE OFF."

Trump also told reporters that he would be willing to designate the far-left group "Antifa" as a "domestic terrorist organization," even though no official designation currently exists. 

"Antifa is terrible," Trump said. "We have some pretty radical groups and they got away with murder. These aren't protests these are crimes what they're doing."
