President Trump has stated that "in general, parties are aligned" on how the next stages of the peace deal in Gaza will work, though he admitted that "some of the details … will be finalized."

"Hamas is assembling them now," the president commented, speaking about the captives yet to be freed in the Gaza Strip. "They are in very difficult places."

President Trump, who has been lauded by the group and numerous Israelis for his involvement in securing a ceasefire deal, remarked he thinks the accord will "hold" because "they're all exhausted by the fighting."

Planned Conference on Gaza Crisis

Meanwhile, the president plans to convene world leaders for a high-level meeting on the Gaza situation during his travel to the Arab Republic of Egypt soon. Attendees anticipated to take part are representatives from the Federal Republic of Germany, France, the Britain, Italy, the State of Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Jordan, Turkey, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Indonesia.

Based on sources, PM Netanyahu will be absent.

Leader's Plans

He affirmed that he would meet a "lot of dignitaries" in the city on the start of the week to discuss the future of the Gaza Strip. Reports suggest that he will also visit the nation, where he will speak before the Israeli parliament.

Key Developments

• Tens of thousands of Palestinian residents made their way to the largely ruined northern Gaza Strip on the end of the week as a US-brokered ceasefire came into effect. The 48 hostages—about 20 of them thought to be alive—will be freed by Monday.
• Questions remain over leadership in Gaza as Israeli troops retreat step by step and whether the organization will relinquish arms, as stipulated in Trump's ceasefire plan. The Israeli leader, who terminated on his own a truce in last March, indicated that Israel might restart its military campaign if they refuses to surrender its weapons.
• The United Nations was authorized by the government to commence delivering expanded relief into Gaza beginning the weekend. The relief will comprise significant amounts that have already been positioned in nearby nations such as Jordan and Egypt as humanitarian officials expected permission from the army to restart their work.
• An official he told the press on last Friday that fuel, healthcare materials, and essential items have begun moving through the Kerem Shalom crossing. Agency staff are calling for Israel to open more entry points and guarantee safe movement for relief personnel and residents who are going back to regions of the territory that were under heavy fire until only recently.
• The president of Lebanon Joseph Aoun denounced the nation on last Saturday for executing nocturnal attacks on non-military sites that the health ministry said caused one fatality. "Yet again, the south of Lebanon has been the focus of a egregious offensive against civilian installations—with no valid reason or excuse," he stated.
• Israel disclosed a roster of the Palestinian prisoners that it aims to release as in accordance with the truce deal reached with Hamas. From the 250 Palestinian prisoners, fifteen will be released in the eastern part of the city, a hundred to the Palestinian territory, and the remainder will be sent abroad. At first, when Hamas officials presented a roster of proposed inmates to be released to intermediaries in Egypt, they called for the liberation of high-profile individuals such as the figure. Yet, Netanyahu's office affirmed it refuses to release Barghouti.
