The American leader has indicated that "in general, parties are aligned" on how the following steps of the Gaza ceasefire plan will unfold, though he acknowledged that "certain specifics … will be worked out."

"Hamas is gathering them now," Trump said, referring to the captives yet to be freed in the Gaza Strip. "They're in some quite harsh locations."

He, who has been commended by Hamas and many in Israel for his involvement in achieving a peace accord, remarked he thinks the agreement will "be sustained" because "they're all exhausted by the conflict."

Planned Conference on Gaza Crisis

At the same time, the president aims to convene global figures for a conference on the Gaza situation during his travel to Egypt soon. Among those anticipated to participate are representatives from the Federal Republic of Germany, France, the UK, Italy, Qatar, the UAE, Jordan, the Republic of Turkey, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Indonesia.

Based on information, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is not expected to attend.

Trump's Itinerary

The president stated that he would confer with a "lot of dignitaries" in the city on the start of the week to talk about the prospects of the territory. It has been reported that he will also travel to the nation, where he will speak before the legislative body.

Key Developments

• Tens of thousands of Palestinians made their way to the severely damaged Gaza's north on Friday as a American-negotiated truce was implemented. Those still 48 captives—approximately 20 of them considered alive—will be released by the start of the week.
• Issues linger over leadership in Gaza as Israel's military gradually pull back and whether the organization will relinquish arms, as called for in the proposed deal. PM Netanyahu, who unilaterally ended a truce in spring, indicated that the country might resume its military campaign if they fails to surrender its arms.
• The United Nations was authorized by Israeli authorities to commence distributing increased humanitarian assistance into Gaza beginning the weekend. This assistance will comprise a large quantity that have been stored in nearby nations such as the Kingdom of Jordan and the Arab Republic of Egypt as humanitarian officials were waiting for authorization from Israel's military to restart their work.
• An official Stéphane Dujarric told reporters on Friday that petrol, medicines, and vital resources have started flowing through the Kerem Shalom crossing. Representatives are urging Israel to open more border crossings and guarantee secure passage for humanitarian staff and civilians who are returning to parts of Gaza that were experiencing severe attacks until only recently.
• Lebanese President the head of state censured the Israeli government on last Saturday for carrying out nocturnal attacks on non-military sites that the health authority said resulted in at least one death. "Once again, the south of Lebanon has been the target of a egregious offensive against civilian structures—unjustifiably or rationale," the president stated.
• Israel provided a list of the Palestinian detainees that it aims to free as in accordance with the peace accord made with the organization. Of the 250 detainees, a group of 15 will be released in the eastern part of the city, one hundred to the Palestinian territory, and the remainder will be expelled. Originally, when Hamas officials presented a list of proposed prisoners to be let go to negotiators in the country, they called for the freeing of high-profile Palestinian leaders such as the activist. Yet, the prime minister's team confirmed it refuses to let go Barghouti.
