President Trump has stated that "largely, parties are aligned" on how the subsequent phases of the peace deal in Gaza will work, though he conceded that "some of the details … will be worked out."

"They're assembling them now," he said, speaking about the captives yet to be freed in Gaza. "They are in pretty rough situations."

The US president, who has been praised by the group and many in Israel for his involvement in securing a peace accord, said he thinks the accord will "hold" because "they're all exhausted by the conflict."

Significant Events

• Tens of thousands of Palestinians returned to the largely ruined northern Gaza on last Friday as a US-brokered ceasefire was implemented. Those still 48 individuals—approximately 20 of them considered surviving—are to be let go by the start of the week.
• Uncertainties persist over leadership in Gaza as Israeli troops gradually pull back and if Hamas will give up weapons, as required in the president's truce agreement. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who unilaterally ended a truce in last March, hinted that Israel might renew its military campaign if Hamas does not surrender its weapons.
• The United Nations was authorized by Israeli authorities to begin delivering increased relief into the territory starting on Sunday. This assistance will include 170,000 metric tons that have been stored in nearby nations such as Jordan and Egypt as relief coordinators were waiting for clearance from Israel's military to recommence their efforts.
• A representative from the UN the spokesman informed the press on last Friday that petrol, medicines, and essential items have started flowing through the Kerem Shalom crossing. UN officials are urging Israel to unseal further entry points and guarantee safe movement for humanitarian staff and residents who are returning to regions of the territory that were under heavy fire up until lately.
• The leader Joseph Aoun denounced the Israeli government on Saturday for executing overnight strikes on civilian facilities that the health ministry said killed at least one person. "For another time, southern Lebanon has been the focus of a heinous offensive against non-military facilities—with no valid reason or excuse," the president said.
• Israeli authorities provided a list of the individuals in custody that it intends to free as under the truce deal agreed upon with the group. Of the 250 detainees, fifteen will be freed in eastern Jerusalem, one hundred to the region, and 135 will be sent abroad. Initially, when representatives of the group provided a roster of suggested prisoners to be released to mediators in Egypt, they called for the freeing of well-known Palestinian leaders such as the activist. However, the Israeli government confirmed it declines to free the individual.
