The Gaza Peace Summit was held in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, on Monday (October 13). The talks were co-chaired by Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi and US President Donald Trump, leading to a ceasefire declaration guaranteed by the US, Egypt, Qatar, and Türkiye. The summit, attended by over 20 world leaders, followed a deal brokered by Trump that secured the release of the last 20 Israeli hostages held by Hamas in exchange for nearly two thousand Palestinians. Both Trump and El-Sisi praised each other's roles in ending the two-year conflict. El-Sisi hailed the agreement as closing a "painful chapter" and reaffirmed Egypt's support for a two-state solution, announcing an upcoming conference for Gaza's reconstruction.
