U.S. President Donald Trump on Sunday urged progress in ceasefire talks in the 20-month war in Gaza between Israel and Hamas, though some weary Palestinians were skeptical about the chances. Israel issued a new mass evacuation order for parts of northern Gaza.

P resident Donald Trump has pressed for Israel and Hamas to clinch a ceasefire and secure the release of the remaining captives held in Gaza. Trump fired off an all-caps demand fire in a Truth Social post at 1:19 a.m. ET Sunday: "MAKE THE DEAL IN GAZA. GET THE HOSTAGES BACK!!! DJT."

At least 86 people were killed as the result of Israeli attacks in the 24 hours before midday Sunday, the Hamas-run health ministry said.
