US President Donald Trump has remarked that "in general, agreement exists" on how the following steps of the peace deal in Gaza will work, though he acknowledged that "some of the details … will be resolved."

"They're gathering them currently," he said, mentioning the hostages still held in the region. "They're in some very difficult locations."

Key Developments

• Issues linger over the future governance of the Gaza Strip as forces retreat step by step and whether the group will disarm, as stipulated in the proposed deal. The Israeli leader, who unilaterally ended a truce in March, hinted that the nation might resume its offensive if they does not give up its arms.
• The international body was granted permission by Israel to start delivering scaled-up aid into the territory from the weekend. This assistance will involve 170,000 metric tons that have already been positioned in neighboring countries such as Jordan and the Arab Republic of Egypt as relief coordinators were waiting for clearance from the army to restart their efforts.
• A representative from the UN the spokesman told reporters on Friday that petrol, medical supplies, and vital resources have started flowing through the Kerem Shalom crossing. Agency staff are urging authorities to open more border crossings and guarantee protected transit for aid workers and the population who are coming back to areas in Gaza that were under heavy fire up until lately.
• Lebanese President he denounced the Israeli government on last Saturday for executing overnight strikes on non-military sites that the ministry said resulted in at least one death. "Once again, the region has been the target of a egregious offensive against civilian structures—with no valid reason or rationale," Aoun said.
• Israeli authorities provided a inventory of the Palestinian detainees that it aims to free as in accordance with the peace accord agreed upon with the organization. From the 250 individuals, a group of 15 will be let go in the eastern part of the city, 100 to the region, and one hundred thirty-five will be expelled. Originally, when Hamas officials submitted a roster of proposed inmates to be freed to negotiators in the country, they requested the freeing of high-profile Palestinian leaders such as the activist. Yet, the Israeli government affirmed it will not agree to let go Barghouti.
