US President Donald Trump has indicated that "in general, there is consensus" on how the subsequent phases of the peace deal in Gaza will work, though he acknowledged that "a few particulars … will be resolved."

"Hamas is collecting them currently," the president said, speaking about the captives yet to be freed in the Gaza Strip. "They are in pretty rough situations."

He, who has been lauded by Hamas and various Israeli figures for his involvement in achieving a ceasefire deal, said he believes the deal will "be sustained" because "the parties are tired of the conflict."

Forthcoming Meeting on Gaza Issue

Meanwhile, the president aims to bring together world leaders for a summit on the issue during his trip to Egypt next week. Participants expected to participate are officials from Germany, France, the Britain, the Italian Republic, Qatar, the UAE, the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, the Republic of Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Indonesia.

Based on information, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will be absent.

Leader's Plans

The president stated that he would confer with a "lot of leaders" in the city on next Monday to address the direction of the Gaza Strip. Reports suggest that he will also travel to the State of Israel, where he will appear at the Knesset.

Significant Events

• Tens of thousands of Palestinians returned to the heavily destroyed Gaza's north on the end of the week as a ceasefire mediated by the US was implemented. The 48 individuals—some 20 of them thought to be surviving—will be let go by Monday.
• Questions remain over leadership in the region as forces retreat step by step and if Hamas will disarm, as called for in the president's truce agreement. The Israeli leader, who terminated on his own a ceasefire in last March, indicated that the nation might restart its offensive if they refuses to surrender its weapons.
• The United Nations was given the green light by the government to commence delivering scaled-up aid into the territory from Sunday. The relief will involve significant amounts that have been stored in nearby nations such as the Kingdom of Jordan and Egypt as relief coordinators were waiting for permission from Israel's military to resume their operations.
• A representative from the UN he told journalists on last Friday that petrol, medical supplies, and other critical materials have commenced entering through the Kerem Shalom border point. UN officials are calling for the Israeli government to open more border crossings and provide safe movement for relief personnel and civilians who are going back to parts of Gaza that were subject to intense shelling until only recently.
• Lebanese President he condemned Israel on the weekend for executing overnight strikes 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 atrocious offensive against civilian installations—without justification or rationale," he stated.
• Israeli authorities provided a inventory of the Palestinian prisoners that it plans to release as part of the ceasefire agreement agreed upon with the organization. From the 250 detainees, a group of 15 will be freed in the eastern part of the city, one hundred to the West Bank, and the remainder will be expelled. At first, when representatives of the group provided a list of proposed prisoners to be let go to mediators in the Arab Republic, they requested the freeing of prominent Palestinian political figures such as Marwan Barghouti. Yet, Netanyahu's office affirmed it will not agree to free Barghouti.
