US President Donald Trump has indicated that "for the most part, there is consensus" on how the subsequent phases of the Gaza ceasefire plan will proceed, though he admitted that "some of the details … will be resolved."

"Hamas is assembling them at present," Trump commented, speaking about the remaining hostages in the region. "They're in some very difficult situations."

The US president, who has been commended by Hamas and many in Israel for his involvement in achieving a truce agreement, said he is confident the deal will "be sustained" because "the parties are exhausted by the fighting."

• Questions remain over the future governance of Gaza as Israeli troops retreat step by step and if the group will disarm, as required in the proposed deal. The Israeli leader, who terminated on his own a ceasefire in spring, suggested that the country might renew its military campaign if they fails to surrender its arms.
• The United Nations was given the green light by the government to begin delivering expanded aid into the Gaza Strip from Sunday. The relief will include 170,000 metric tons that have been pre-positioned in adjacent states such as Jordan and Egypt as humanitarian officials expected authorization from the army to restart their efforts.
• UN spokesperson Stéphane Dujarric told journalists on last Friday that energy supplies, healthcare materials, and essential items have commenced entering through the Kerem Shalom border point. Agency staff are urging Israel to unseal further entry points and guarantee safe movement for aid workers and the population who are coming back to parts of Gaza that were experiencing severe attacks up until lately.
• The president of Lebanon he condemned the nation on last Saturday for carrying out raids during the night on civilian facilities that the ministry said caused one fatality. "Once again, southern Lebanon has been the focus of a atrocious offensive against civilian structures—without justification or pretext," he said.
• Israeli authorities provided a roster of the individuals in custody that it aims to release as in accordance with the peace accord made with Hamas. From the 250 detainees, 15 will be released in East Jerusalem, a hundred to the West Bank, and one hundred thirty-five will be expelled. Initially, when Hamas officials provided a selection of suggested detainees to be released to mediators in Egypt, they called for the liberation of high-profile individuals such as Marwan Barghouti. But, the Israeli government affirmed it declines to free him.
