President Trump has indicated that "in general, there is consensus" on how the next stages of the Gaza ceasefire plan will unfold, though he acknowledged that "some of the details … will be resolved."

"Hamas is collecting them at present," Trump said, mentioning the remaining hostages in the region. "They are in pretty rough situations."

He, who has been lauded by the group and many in Israel for his part in achieving a truce agreement, said he believes the agreement will "be sustained" because "the parties are tired of the hostilities."

Among those expected to participate are officials from the Federal Republic of Germany, the French Republic, the UK, Italy, Qatar, the UAE, Jordan, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and the Republic of Indonesia.

According to reports, the Israeli leader is not expected to attend.

The president stated that he would meet a "many officials" in the Egyptian capital on next Monday to discuss the direction of the territory. Reports suggest that he will also visit the State of Israel, where he will address the legislative body.

Key Developments

• Many of individuals made their way to the largely ruined northern Gaza on last Friday as a American-negotiated truce was implemented. Those still 48 hostages—approximately 20 of them thought to be alive—are scheduled to be released by Monday.
• Issues linger over who will govern the Gaza Strip as Israel's military slowly withdraw and whether Hamas will disarm, as stipulated in the president's truce agreement. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who terminated on his own a ceasefire in last March, hinted that the country might renew its military campaign if Hamas does not give up its weapons.
• The UN was authorized by Israeli authorities to begin providing increased humanitarian assistance into the territory beginning Sunday. The relief will involve significant amounts that have already been positioned in adjacent states such as Jordan and Egypt as humanitarian officials expected clearance from Israeli forces to restart their efforts.
• An official the spokesman reported to the press on the end of the week that fuel, medical supplies, and vital resources have begun moving through the crossing point. Representatives want authorities to allow access through additional entry points and guarantee secure passage for relief personnel and the population who are coming back to areas in Gaza that were under heavy fire up until lately.
• The leader he denounced Israel on the weekend for conducting 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 heinous Israeli aggression against civilian installations—with no valid reason or pretext," the president stated.
• Israel disclosed a roster of the Palestinian detainees that it aims to free as in accordance with the truce deal reached with the group. Out of the 250 individuals, a group of 15 will be let go in the eastern part of the city, one hundred to the region, and one hundred thirty-five will be expelled. Initially, when representatives of the group presented a roster of recommended detainees to be let go to intermediaries in Egypt, they requested the release of high-profile Palestinian political figures such as the figure. Yet, the prime minister's team stated it declines to let go Barghouti.
