President Donald Trump criticized European nations for not providing aid to Gaza during a meeting with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen in Scotland. Trump emphasized that while the United States has contributed significant humanitarian support, he believes Europe has not done enough. He also stated that Israel faces a critical decision regarding its approach to Hamas, especially with hostages still being held. Trump suggested that Hamas is unwilling to release the remaining hostages, fearing it would lose leverage, and called for a deal to end the conflict and return the hostages, living or deceased, to their families. Meanwhile, Israel has increased its aid efforts in Gaza, conducting multiple airdrops and transferring hundreds of trucks of supplies, while disputing reports of widespread starvation in the region.
