President Donald Trump joined more than 20 world leaders in Sharm El‑Sheikh as first phase of the Israel‑Hamas ceasefire took hold, culminating in a signing ceremony under a “Peace 2025” banner. Trump, Egypt’s Abdel Fattah el‑Sisi, Turkey’s Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and Qatar’s Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani signed a document whose contents remain undisclosed. Hamas and Israel were absent; Netanyahu’s office cited a Jewish holiday. At the Knesset, Trump proclaimed a “new dawn” and said the war was over. Monday saw Hamas free 20 hostages and Israel release Palestinian prisoners, as Trump touted rebuilding and urged Iran to engage.
