Trump Declares Gaza War 'over,' Hostages Due Home
World leaders will finalize a peace deal including ceasefire, hostages release, and troop withdrawals after over 67,000 deaths in Gaza, officials said.
- On Monday, an international summit will convene in Sharm el-Sheikh to finalize a Gaza agreement co-chaired by Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi and US President Donald Trump.
- After a ceasefire that took effect on Friday following three days of talks mediated by Egypt, Qatar, Türkiye and the United States, the summit follows two years of conflict since Hamas's October 7, 2023 attack.
- First-Phase measures envisage withdrawals from Gaza City, Rafah, Khan Younis and the north, plus opening five crossings and a prisoner exchange starting Monday morning, Hamas official Osama Hamdan said.
- Attendance will feature top global figures while the main local actors decline governance roles, as Israel will skip the summit and Hamas said it will not participate in post-war governance.
- Mediators caution the summit may strengthen support even as key governance, security and rebuilding questions remain open, despite plans for a multinational force coordinated by a US-led command centre in Israel.
