Israel is set to release 250 Palestinian prisoners in exchange for the last 20 living Israeli hostages held by Hamas, alongside returning the bodies of 28 deceased Israeli hostages. Trump praised regional cooperation and hinted at the second phase of negotiations for a lasting peace agreement. In his address to the Knesset, Trump hailed the event as a historic dawn for the Middle East, suggesting that the new peace deal is a significant breakthrough. As he received the Order of the Nile from President al-Sisi, Trump reflected on the magnitude of the agreement, indicating it took 3,000 years to reach such a point. While the first phase of the ceasefire is in effect, the future role of the Palestinian Authority remains uncertain, as the peace plan evolves.
