US President Donald Trump on Tuesday said he is considering going to the Middle East, but not immediately amid the return of hostages, as he reiterated that the attack on Israel by the Hamas on October 7, 2023, should not have happened.
“We’re thinking about going to the Middle East. But not yet, as hostages are
coming back right now. Some of them have been very, very damaged. You look at the young lady with her hand practically blown off — you know how that happened, right? Did you know how that happened,” Trump said during a joint news conference at the White House with Oracle CTO Larry Ellison, Softbank CEO Masayoshi Son, and Open AI CEO Sam Altman.
