The American leader has remarked that "for the most part, there is consensus" on how the subsequent phases of the peace deal in Gaza will work, though he acknowledged that "some of the details … will be worked out."

"Hamas is collecting them at present," he said, referring to the captives yet to be freed in the Gaza Strip. "They're in some very difficult situations."

The US president, who has been commended by Hamas and many in Israel for his involvement in achieving a ceasefire deal, said he thinks the agreement will "remain in place" because "the parties are weary of the conflict."

Planned Conference on Gaza Crisis

Meanwhile, he plans to assemble global figures for a summit on the Gaza situation during his travel to the North African nation next week. Among those slated to join are representatives from the European nation, France, the United Kingdom, Italy, Qatar, the UAE, the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, Turkey, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, and Indonesia.

Based on information, PM Netanyahu is not expected to attend.

President's Schedule

Trump affirmed that he would engage with a "lot of leaders" in Cairo on Monday to discuss the direction of Gaza. Sources indicate that he will also travel to the nation, where he will appear at the Knesset.

Key Developments

• Tens of thousands of individuals headed back to the severely damaged Gaza's north on the end of the week as a US-brokered ceasefire came into effect. The 48 hostages—some 20 of them believed to be alive—are scheduled to be freed by Monday.
• Issues linger over who will govern the region as forces retreat step by step and if the organization will relinquish arms, as stipulated in the proposed deal. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who terminated on his own a ceasefire in March, hinted that Israel might renew its offensive if they does not relinquish its military assets.
• The UN was authorized by Israel to start distributing expanded humanitarian assistance into Gaza from the weekend. The aid will comprise significant amounts that have been pre-positioned in neighboring countries such as the Kingdom of Jordan and the Arab Republic of Egypt as aid workers expected permission from the army to resume their operations.
• A representative from the UN he told the press on the end of the week that energy supplies, healthcare materials, and vital resources have commenced entering through the Kerem Shalom border point. Agency staff are urging authorities to open more entry points and provide protected transit for humanitarian staff and the population who are going back to parts of Gaza that were under heavy fire just a short time ago.
• The president of Lebanon he condemned Israel on last Saturday for conducting nocturnal attacks on public installations that the ministry said killed at least one person. "Yet again, the south of Lebanon has been the target of a egregious offensive against non-military facilities—without justification or excuse," he remarked.
• Israeli authorities shared a roster of the Palestinian prisoners that it plans to let go as under the truce deal made with the organization. From the 250 Palestinian prisoners, 15 will be let go in the eastern part of the city, 100 to the Palestinian territory, and 135 will be sent abroad. Originally, when representatives of the group submitted a selection of proposed detainees to be released to intermediaries in the Arab Republic, they called for the release of well-known Palestinian leaders such as the figure. But, the prime minister's team stated it declines to free Barghouti.
