US President Donald Trump has remarked that "for the most part, there is consensus" on how the subsequent phases of the truce agreement for Gaza will unfold, though he conceded that "some of the details … will be worked out."

"They're assembling them currently," he stated, speaking about the hostages still held in the region. "They are in pretty rough places."

The US president, who has been praised by the group and many in Israel for his part in brokering a ceasefire deal, expressed he believes the agreement will "be sustained" because "the parties are tired of the hostilities."

At the same time, Trump plans to assemble world leaders for a high-level meeting on the issue during his travel to the Arab Republic of Egypt in the coming week. Participants expected to join are representatives from Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Italy, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and the Republic of Indonesia.

According to sources, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will not be present.

President's Schedule

Trump confirmed that he would confer with a "lot of officials" in the Egyptian capital on next Monday to talk about the prospects of Gaza. It has been reported that he will also go to the nation, where he will speak before the Knesset.
