JERUSALEM, Israel – A U.S.-Israeli agreement on the Hamas terrorists holed up in a tunnel comes with a significant snag, and new plans by the Trump administration could put military boots on the ground along the Gaza Strip.

Negotiators reached a deal to free, then deport, some 200 Hamas terrorists trapped in an underground tunnel on the Israel-controlled side of the Gaza Strip.

The problem: no country has yet agreed to take in the terrorists.

In an effort to maintain the ceasefire, the U.S. is reportedly planning to build a $500 million military facility along the Gaza-Israel border. Currently, the U.S. military presence is rather slim, with around 200 American soldiers.
