Trump threatens Hamas if Gaza ceasefire collapses as JD Vance to visit Israel
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
As it was announced that Vice President JD Vance would visit Israel, President Donald Trump once again warned Hamas, saying the U.S.-brokered Gaza truce must hold, and issued another blunt warning to the terrorist group.
During a White House meeting with Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese on Monday, Trump warned, «We’re going to eradicate them. If we have to, they’ll be eradicated. And they know that,» he told reporters, and stressed the deal’s broad backing — «59 countries that agreed to the deal» — while insisting the ceasefire remains in place and warning that any further violence would be met with decisive action.
While details of Vance’s trip to Israel have yet to be announced, Washington’s diplomacy is extending beyond Jerusalem, as U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner were expected to travel to Egypt from Israel for talks with Hamas representatives, underscoring a push to move from preserving the ceasefire toward negotiating the more fraught next phase.

At Monday’s meeting with the Australian pm, Trump was asked by a reporter whether the U.S. would put boots on the ground, Trump said his administration does not plan to deploy troops and that other countries — and Israel itself — could act if needed.
«We don’t need to, because we have many countries, as you know, signed on to this deal,» he said. «We’ve had countries calling me when they saw some of the killing with Hamas, saying we’d love to go in and take care of the situation ourselves. In addition, you have Israel — they would go in, in two minutes. If I asked him to go in, I could tell him, go in and take care of it. But right now, we haven’t said that. We’re going to give it a little chance, and hopefully there will be a little less violence.»
He added a blunt warning about Hamas’ capacity and support. «But right now, you know, they’re violent people. Hamas has been very violent, but they don’t have the backing of Iran anymore… They have to be good, and if they’re not good, they’ll be eradicated — because absolutely we can, and we have the capacity to do so.»
The comments came as senior U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner met with Israeli leaders to shore up the fragile, Trump-brokered, 20-step ceasefire plan after a weekend flare-up. Hamas terrorists killed two Israeli soldiers, prompting Israeli strikes against the terror group. Despite the violence, both Israel and Hamas publicly recommitted to the truce.

HAMAS ACCEPTS TRUMP PEACE PLAN ENDING 2 YEARS OF WAR IN GAZA, RETURNING HOSTAGES
On the ground, the IDF took custody of the coffin of another deceased hostage. A joint IDF–ISA statement asked the public to «act with sensitivity and wait for the official identification, which will first be provided to the families,» while adding that, «Hamas is required to uphold the agreement and take the necessary steps to return all the deceased hostages.» Israeli officials say Hamas could hand over six more bodies immediately out of the 15 still believed in Gaza, though some remains may be impossible to recover amid widespread destruction.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, speaking in the Knesset, struck a hard line while stressing close U.S.–Israel coordination. He warned the fighting was far from over and said violations would carry a «very heavy price,» while praising the «unprecedented closeness» with Washington.

Separately, the IDF said Southern Command troops have begun marking a so-called yellow line inside Gaza — 3.5-meter concrete barriers topped by yellow poles placed roughly every 200 meters — to establish «tactical clarity on the ground» as part of the ceasefire arrangement. The military said the marking will continue «in the coming period» as forces work to remove threats and defend Israeli civilians.

Trump admin on pace to shatter deportation record by end of first year: ‘Just the beginning’
DHS confirms cartel bounties on ICE and CBP agents in Chicago

EXCLUSIVE: With over 500,000 illegal aliens deported since President Donald Trump took office in January, the administration is on track to significantly exceed the record number of illegals deported out of the United States.
Since Trump’s return to the Oval Office on Jan. 20, the administration has deported over 515,000 illegal aliens, according to a high-ranking official at the Department of Homeland Security.
DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told Fox News Digital the administration is «on pace to shatter historic records» by deporting 600,000 illegals by the end of Trump’s first year back in office. She said that in total, more than two million illegal aliens have left the U.S., including 1.6 million who voluntarily self-deported, as well as the over 515,000 deportations. Another 485,000 illegal aliens have been arrested by DHS since Trump took office.
McLaughlin said that «this is just the beginning» and that Trump and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem «have jumpstarted an agency that was vilified and barred from doing its job for the last four years.»

«Illegal aliens are hearing our message to leave now or face the consequence. Migrants are now even turning back before they reach our borders,» said McLaughlin, pointing to what she said has been a 99.99 percent drop in migration through Panama’s Darien Gap, which is a key migration route to the U.S.
«In the face of a historic number of injunctions from activist judges, ICE, CBP, and the U.S. Coast Guard have made historic progress to carry out President Trump’s promise of arresting and deporting illegal aliens who have invaded our country.»
Just this weekend, DHS said that it continued its sweep of the «worst of the worst» criminal illegal aliens across the country amidst the ongoing government shutdown. Over the weekend, DHS said it arrested illegals convicted of rape of a child, assault, hit-and-run, kidnapping and other crimes.
One of those arrested was Erick Xavier Romero, a Dominican national, who the agency said was convicted of rape of a child in Boston. Another illegal, Guatemalan national, German Osvaldo Cortez-Chajon, was arrested this weekend after being convicted of traveling to meet a child for an unlawful sex act in Dale County, Alabama. A third illegal, Mexican national Graciano Lopez-Flores, was arrested following a conviction of indecent liberties with a child in Orange County, North Carolina.

Also in North Carolina, ICE arrested Shahed Hassan, an illegal from Bangladesh, who was convicted of simple assault, possession of drug paraphernalia, illegally carrying a concealed gun, driving while impaired, probation violation, felony larceny and domestic violence protection order violation in Wake County.
Just to the north, ICE arrested Van Pham from Laos, who was convicted of five counts of abduction and burglary in Fairfax County, Virginia.
In Massachusetts, ICE arrested Patricia Pimental-Cordero, from the Dominican Republic, who was convicted of two counts of hit-and-run in Lawrence, Massachusetts.
Another illegal, Ramona Mercado-Vasquez from the Caribbean island of Dominica, was arrested by ICE in Bergen County, New Jersey, following a conviction for kidnapping and robbery.
In Wisconsin, ICE arrested Mexican national Karlett Zagal-Salazar, who was convicted of drug trafficking.

El candidato de centroizquierda del Partido Demócrata Cristiano (PDC), Rodrigo Paz, se impuso con el 54% de los votos al obtener casi diez puntos de ventaja sobre su rival, Jorge Tuto Quiroga. Este triunfo no solo pone fin a dos décadas de hegemonía del Movimiento al Socialismo (MAS), liderado por Evo Morales, sino que también confiere una sólida legitimidad a la nueva administración. Sin embargo, los retos que se vislumbran en el ámbito político, para el gobierno de Paz, que asumirá el 9 de noviembre próximo, son considerables.
La primera gran prueba para Paz será la consolidación de su base de poder en el legislativo. La principal debilidad radica en que el Partido Demócrata Cristiano (PDC) funcionó como un «vientre de alquiler», una estructura instrumental sin arraigo social o nacional que respaldara la candidatura. Aunque Paz capitalizó el voto del «núcleo duro» del MAS en varias regiones, no heredó la estructura partidaria ni la capacidad de movilización de su predecesor. Esta debilidad partidaria genera dos puntos de fricción.
Dentro de la bancada del PDC podrían emerger múltiples facciones, cada una buscando cuotas de poder. Las tensiones que ya se evidenciaron entre Paz y su compañero de fórmula, Edman Lara, durante la campaña podrían exacerbarse, complicando la gobernanza del Ejecutivo y la gestión de la Asamblea Legislativa Plurinacional (ALP).
Así mismo, Paz deberá negociar consensos con otros partidos. Si bien cuenta con el respaldo explícito de Unidad de Samuel Doria Medina, que se concretó en el balotaje, las relaciones con el partido de Quiroga, LIBRE, son más tensas. Aunque comparten afinidades ideológicas (economía de mercado, apertura exterior, respeto a las instituciones), las secuelas de la agresiva campaña electoral dificultarán una posible alianza. La mayoría simple en la ALP está asegurada con la alianza del PDC con Unidad, pero para reformas de mayor calado, como un eventual cambio constitucional, necesita acercarse y pactar con LIBRE, que posee la llave de los dos tercios.
Un segundo desafío crucial será la relación con los poderosos y decisivos movimientos sociales. El apoyo de estas organizaciones a la fórmula del PDC, si bien fue un factor determinante para su victoria, no garantiza una lealtad incondicional. Con un notable historial de empoderamiento político, estas organizaciones buscarán proteger sus privilegios y, si se sienten desfavorecidas, podrían recurrir a movilizaciones que amenacen la estabilidad social.
Su apoyo será fundamental para legitimar cualquier ajuste económico y social. El manejo de las tensiones con estos sectores y la forma en que el nuevo gobierno gestione el legado del «masismo» serán vitales para mantener la estabilidad del país. En muchos sentidos estas son fuerzas antisistema que pueden bloquear el gobierno de Paz.
La capacidad del nuevo gobierno para emprender cualquier política económica y social está condicionada por la superación de estos dos desafíos políticos: necesita un legislativo alineado con el Ejecutivo y una articulación efectiva con los movimientos sociales.
Una vez resueltos los obstáculos políticos, el siguiente gran desafío es el económico. Paz recibe un país en crisis, con escasez de dólares, inflación y reservas internacionales en descenso. La eliminación de los subsidios a los combustibles, una medida crucial para la sostenibilidad fiscal, podría provocar un grave descontento social. El precedente de 2010, cuando Evo Morales tuvo que dar marcha atrás a un ajuste similar por la presión de los movimientos sociales, subraya la delicadeza de esta situación.
El 19 de octubre no solo marcó el fin de una era política, sino que también abrió un interrogante crucial: ¿Se encamina Bolivia hacia una verdadera transformación o hacia una continuación del modelo del MAS por otros medios?
La respuesta a esta pregunta definirá la dirección del país en los próximos años. Si el nuevo gobierno de Rodrigo Paz opta por la primera vía, será indispensable abordar reformas estructurales que permitan fortalecer las instituciones democrática. Estas reformas incluirían: la reducción del presidencialismo y generar un sistema de justicia libre de la influencia política.
Si, por el contrario, el gobierno de Paz se concentra únicamente en la solución de los problemas económicos más apremiantes —como la inflación y la escasez de hidrocarburos—, ignorando sus causas profundas, el modelo del MAS podría persistir. Este modelo se caracteriza por una economía de base estrecha, sin una industrialización significativa ni una generación estable de empleo.
Es probable que el MAS, ahora sin mayoría parlamentaria, ofrezca un margen de maniobra inicial a la nueva administración. Sin embargo, el panorama político no estará completo hasta las elecciones subnacionales del próximo año. Solo entonces se definirá con mayor claridad la nueva correlación de fuerzas en el país. Por ahora, Bolivia da sus primeros pasos fuera del dominio hegemónico del MAS y de la sombra de Morales.

A new video has emerged showing what could be the Louvre thieves in action as they carried out Sunday’s daylight robbery at Paris’s world-famous museum.
The footage, obtained by French broadcaster BFMTV, purportedly shows what has been called one of the most brazen art thefts in recent memory.
The short clip appears to show someone inside the Louvre’s Apollo Gallery, which was home to some of the museum’s most priceless treasures.
Footage taken by an anonymous bystander shows a person in a bright yellow jacket standing beside a glass display case.

The amateur footage was replayed for BFMTV, who filmed that phone’s screen and verified it Sunday. The Associated Press has not been able to independently confirm its authenticity.
According to French authorities, the thieves executed a highly coordinated operation that unfolded just after the museum opened to the public in the morning.
At around 9:30 a.m., thieves used a basket lift to reach the Louvre’s facade, forcing open a window to gain entry to the Apollo Gallery, which contains displays of the royal jewels.

According to reports, the group made off with jewels once belonging to Napoleon III’s court, including pieces from Empress Eugénie’s personal collection.
«They breached through a window and made this really brazen. These guys are fast and moving quickly with a purpose, and they breach, and they get in there really quickly,» former FBI Art Crime expert Tim Carpenter told Fox News Digital.
After the heist, Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez spoke to radio station France Inter and said the thieves «entered from the outside using a basket lift» and «a disc cutter» to slice through glass panes containing precious jewels.

«The investigation has begun, and a detailed list of the stolen items is being compiled,» the ministry also said in a statement. «Beyond their market value, these items have inestimable heritage and historical value.»
