Overview

• Israeli authorities concentrated about 250 long‑sentenced Palestinian security prisoners at Ketziot and Ofer for releases to Gaza via Rafah and to the West Bank.
• Hamas is preparing to hand over 48 hostages as early as Sunday night into Monday, with President Trump citing Monday and CNN sources indicating multiple transfer locations and roughly 20 believed alive.
• About 200 U.S. military personnel arrived to help oversee the truce under CENTCOM leadership, which said American forces will not deploy inside Gaza as a wider multinational mission takes shape.
• UN‑authorized aid trucks began entering the enclave as an estimated 500,000 displaced residents returned to check homes and search for missing relatives.
• Hamas publicly rejects full disarmament and signals it seeks to integrate its fighters into Palestinian security structures, complicating the next phase of the agreement.
