The American leader has stated that "in general, agreement exists" on how the next stages of the peace deal in Gaza will unfold, though he conceded that "certain specifics … will be resolved."

"Hamas is assembling them at present," the president stated, referring to the remaining hostages in the region. "They find themselves in quite harsh places."

President Trump, who has been commended by the organization and many in Israel for his part in securing a peace accord, remarked he is confident the accord will "be sustained" because "they're all tired of the hostilities."

Among those anticipated to join are officials from Germany, France, the Britain, Italy, the State of Qatar, the UAE, the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Indonesia.

According to reports, the Israeli leader will not be present.

Trump's Itinerary

Trump confirmed that he would meet a "lot of leaders" in Cairo on Monday to address the future of the Gaza Strip. It has been reported that he will also visit the State of Israel, where he will speak before the Knesset.

Major Updates

• Tens of thousands of Palestinians made their way to the largely ruined northern Gaza on the end of the week as a American-negotiated truce came into effect. The remaining 48 hostages—approximately 20 of them believed to be living—are scheduled to be freed by Monday.
• Questions remain over leadership in Gaza as Israel's military slowly withdraw and if the organization will disarm, as required in the proposed deal. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who terminated on his own a ceasefire in March, hinted that Israel might resume its operations if they does not surrender its arms.
• The United Nations was granted permission by the government to commence delivering expanded aid into Gaza from this Sunday. This assistance will include 170,000 metric tons that have already been positioned in nearby nations such as Jordan and Egypt as aid workers awaited clearance from Israel's military to restart their operations.
• A representative from the UN Stéphane Dujarric informed journalists on the end of the week that fuel, medical supplies, and essential items have begun moving through the Kerem Shalom crossing. Agency staff are calling for authorities to allow access through additional border crossings and ensure secure passage for relief personnel and civilians who are coming back to regions of the territory that were experiencing severe attacks just a short time ago.
• The president of Lebanon Joseph Aoun censured the nation on the weekend for executing raids during the night on public installations that the health ministry said caused one fatality. "Once again, the south of Lebanon has been the object of a egregious Israeli aggression against non-military facilities—unjustifiably or excuse," Aoun stated.
• Israel disclosed a roster of the Palestinian prisoners that it intends to release as in accordance with the ceasefire agreement reached with Hamas. Of the 250 individuals, fifteen will be freed in the eastern part of the city, one hundred to the region, and one hundred thirty-five will be expelled. Originally, when the organization's delegates submitted a roster of suggested detainees to be freed to mediators in Egypt, they called for the release of well-known individuals such as Marwan Barghouti. But, the prime minister's team affirmed it declines to let go the individual.
