President Trump has remarked that "in general, parties are aligned" on how the following steps of the peace deal in Gaza will unfold, though he conceded that "certain specifics … will be worked out."

"They're collecting them currently," Trump commented, referring to the remaining hostages in the Gaza Strip. "They're in some pretty rough places."

He, who has been lauded by Hamas and various Israeli figures for his part in achieving a truce agreement, remarked he is confident the agreement will "remain in place" because "both sides are tired of the conflict."

Upcoming Summit on Gaza Crisis

At the same time, the president plans to bring together international leaders for a high-level meeting on the issue during his visit to the North African nation soon. Attendees anticipated to take part are delegates from the Federal Republic of Germany, the French Republic, the United Kingdom, Italy, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Jordan, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Indonesia.

As per information, PM Netanyahu will be absent.

President's Schedule

Trump confirmed that he would engage with a "lot of officials" in Cairo on Monday to talk about the prospects of the Gaza Strip. Reports suggest that he will also travel to Israel, where he will address the Israeli parliament.

Significant Events

• Tens of thousands of Palestinian residents made their way to the heavily destroyed Gaza's north on Friday as a US-brokered ceasefire was implemented. The remaining 48 individuals—some 20 of them believed to be surviving—will be let go by Monday.
• Questions remain over who will govern the Gaza Strip as forces slowly withdraw and if Hamas will relinquish arms, as called for in Trump's ceasefire plan. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who terminated on his own a ceasefire in March, suggested that the nation might restart its operations if they fails to relinquish its weapons.
• The UN was authorized by the government to begin providing expanded relief into Gaza from the weekend. The relief will involve 170,000 metric tons that have been stored in adjacent states such as Jordan and Egypt as aid workers awaited clearance from the army to restart their work.
• An official he told journalists on last Friday that fuel, healthcare materials, and essential items have commenced entering through the Kerem Shalom border point. Agency staff are urging authorities to unseal further border crossings and provide secure passage for relief personnel and the population who are going back to areas in Gaza that were subject to intense shelling just a short time ago.
• The president of Lebanon Joseph Aoun censured Israel on Saturday for conducting overnight strikes on public installations that the health ministry said caused one fatality. "Yet again, the south of Lebanon has been the focus of a atrocious Israeli aggression against civilian installations—without justification or excuse," Aoun said.
• Israel disclosed a inventory of the individuals in custody that it plans to let go as part of the peace accord made with the organization. Of the 250 detainees, fifteen will be released in the eastern part of the city, 100 to the region, and the remainder will be deported. Initially, when the organization's delegates presented a list of recommended inmates to be freed to intermediaries in Egypt, they called for the freeing of high-profile Palestinian political figures such as the figure. However, the prime minister's team affirmed it will not agree to free Barghouti.
