During visit to the newly established US-Israel ceasefire coordination center in Kiryat Gat, southern Israel, Vance emphasized he's optimistic the truce will hold, but also that Hamas must be fully disarmed. He was joined by Trump's special envoy Steve Witkoff and senior adviser and the president's son-in-law Jared Kushner.
Trump on Tuesday had warned from Washington that he could deploy international forces to fight Hamas, but that he will give the group a chance to honor the ceasefire, and return more bodies of hostages.
The president posted the following to Truth Social on Tuesday morning:
"Numerous of our NOW GREAT ALLIES in the Middle East, and areas surrounding the Middle East, have explicitly and strongly, with great enthusiasm, informed me that they would welcome the opportunity, at my request, to go into GAZA with a heavy force and 'straighten our Hamas' if Hamas continues to act badly, in violation of their agreement with us."
However, he didn't name any specific countries. But he did praise Indonesia, interestingly, for its humanitarian response related to the crisis.

"This is a very, very tough situation. You have two peoples, two enemies who fought a very tough conflict against each other.
