US President Donald Trump has stated that "largely, there is consensus" on how the following steps of the peace deal in Gaza will work, though he admitted that "a few particulars … will be resolved."

"Hamas is collecting them now," the president commented, speaking about the captives yet to be freed in Gaza. "They are in quite harsh places."

The US president, who has been commended by Hamas and numerous Israelis for his role in securing a truce agreement, remarked he thinks the accord will "remain in place" because "both sides are weary of the fighting."

Upcoming Summit on Gaza Issue

Meanwhile, Trump plans to bring together world leaders for a high-level meeting on the Gaza situation during his trip to the Arab Republic of Egypt in the coming week. Participants anticipated to participate are delegates from the Federal Republic of Germany, the French Republic, the UK, the Italian Republic, the State of Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Jordan, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Indonesia.

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

The president confirmed that he would meet a "many leaders" in the Egyptian capital on Monday to address the prospects of the Gaza Strip. Reports suggest that he will also travel to the State of Israel, where he will appear at the legislative body.

Significant Events

• Tens of thousands of Palestinians headed back to the largely ruined northern Gaza on Friday as a American-negotiated truce took hold. The 48 individuals—approximately 20 of them considered surviving—will be freed by the start of the week.
• Questions remain over who will govern the region as Israel's military gradually pull back and if the group will give up weapons, as stipulated in Trump's ceasefire plan. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who terminated on his own a halt in fighting in spring, suggested that the nation might restart its operations if Hamas refuses to surrender its arms.
• The United Nations was granted permission by Israel to start providing scaled-up relief into the Gaza Strip from the weekend. The relief will involve 170,000 metric tons that have already been positioned in adjacent states such as Jordan and the Arab Republic of Egypt as relief coordinators expected authorization from the army to restart their work.
• An official he told journalists on last Friday that energy supplies, medical supplies, and essential items have started flowing through the crossing point. Agency staff are urging authorities to allow access through additional border crossings and guarantee protected transit for aid workers and civilians who are coming back to regions of the territory that were subject to intense shelling up until lately.
• Lebanese President the head of state denounced Israel on the weekend for carrying out overnight strikes on non-military sites that the health ministry said killed at least one person. "Once again, the region has been the focus of a egregious attack by Israel against non-military facilities—unjustifiably or rationale," he said.
• Israel shared a inventory of the Palestinian detainees that it plans to free as part of the peace accord reached with the group. Out of the 250 individuals, 15 will be released in East Jerusalem, 100 to the Palestinian territory, and the remainder will be deported. Initially, when representatives of the group presented a roster of proposed detainees to be released to intermediaries in the Arab Republic, they demanded the liberation of well-known Palestinian political figures such as the figure. However, Netanyahu's office confirmed it refuses to let go Barghouti.
