President Trump has stated that "for the most part, parties are aligned" on how the following steps of the Gaza ceasefire plan will unfold, though he acknowledged that "some of the details … will be resolved."

"Hamas is gathering them currently," Trump commented, speaking about the remaining hostages in the Gaza Strip. "They're in some very difficult places."

President Trump, who has been praised by the organization and numerous Israelis for his involvement in brokering a peace accord, remarked he thinks the accord will "hold" because "both sides are weary of the conflict."

Upcoming Summit on Gaza Situation

Meanwhile, he plans to assemble world leaders for a conference on Gaza during his visit to the Arab Republic of Egypt in the coming week. Among those anticipated to take part are officials from Germany, France, the Britain, Italy, Qatar, the UAE, the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, the Republic of Turkey, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, and the Republic of Indonesia.

As per reports, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is not expected to attend.

Leader's Plans

Trump stated that he would meet a "lot of leaders" in Cairo on next Monday to address the prospects of Gaza. Sources indicate that he will also travel to Israel, where he will appear at the Israeli parliament.

Significant Events

• Tens of thousands of Palestinians made their way to the largely ruined northern Gaza on Friday as a ceasefire mediated by the US was implemented. Those still 48 hostages—approximately 20 of them believed to be alive—will be released by the start of the week.
• Uncertainties persist over leadership in the Gaza Strip as forces retreat step by step and if the group will give up weapons, as stipulated in Trump's ceasefire plan. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who unilaterally ended a ceasefire in March, indicated that the country might restart its offensive if the group refuses to relinquish its weapons.
• The United Nations was given the green light by the government to begin delivering increased relief into the Gaza Strip beginning the weekend. This assistance will involve a large quantity that have been stored in adjacent states such as Jordan and the Arab Republic of Egypt as relief coordinators expected permission from Israeli forces to recommence their operations.
• A representative from the UN he informed the press on last Friday that energy supplies, medical supplies, and essential items have begun moving through the Kerem Shalom crossing. Agency staff are urging the Israeli government to unseal further border crossings and provide protected transit for relief personnel and civilians who are going back to regions of the territory that were under heavy fire up until lately.
• The president of Lebanon Joseph Aoun denounced the nation on Saturday for conducting overnight strikes on public installations that the health ministry said killed at least one person. "For another time, southern Lebanon has been the target of a atrocious Israeli aggression against civilian structures—without justification or pretext," the president stated.
• Israeli authorities provided a inventory of the Palestinian prisoners that it aims to release as in accordance with the truce deal made with the group. From the 250 Palestinian prisoners, fifteen will be freed in East Jerusalem, 100 to the West Bank, and 135 will be sent abroad. Originally, when Hamas officials presented a selection of recommended inmates to be freed to intermediaries in Egypt, they requested the release of high-profile individuals such as the figure. Yet, Netanyahu's office affirmed it refuses to free the individual.
