Overview

• Egypt said President Abdel Fattah el‑Sisi and President Donald Trump will co‑chair a Sharm el‑Sheikh peace summit on Monday with leaders from more than 20 countries.
• U.S. Central Command’s Brad Cooper toured Gaza with envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff as Washington deploys about 200 personnel in Israel to stand up a civil‑military coordination center, with no U.S. combat troops operating inside Gaza.
• Israel says its forces are repositioning to a temporary security line while retaining the option to resume operations, and Hamas reports deploying its security elements in vacated areas.
• The phase‑one deal pairs a ceasefire with prisoner exchanges, including the release of 47 Israeli hostages and remains in return for 250 life‑sentence prisoners and 1,700 Gaza detainees, with an initial 72‑hour window for releases.
• Humanitarian preparations are scaling up for a major increase in aid, including a planned Rafah reopening and a target of up to 600 trucks per day, though implementation is fragile with field reports of violations and disputes over prisoner lists; Hamas rejects foreign guardianship and says disarmament is off the table and it will not attend a signing ceremony.
