"UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer headed to the Gaza peace summit signing ceremony in Sharm el-Sheikh on Monday. "I'm on my way to the signing ceremony for the peace agreement, which is truly historic. And we all owe thanks to President Trump, to Egypt, Turkey and Qatar. Really important now that all parties implement this. And we stand ready as the United Kingdom to play our part," Starmer said. World leaders, including US President Donald Trump, French President Emmanuel Macron and Turkish leader Recep Tayyip Erdogan, among others, will meet in Egypt for the official signing of the Gaza peace deal. The final twenty living hostages were handed over by Hamas to the Red Cross earlier on Monday. The bodies of 28 deceased hostages will also be returned later, while around 1,700 Palestinians detained in Gaza since October 2023, as well as 250 more serving life sentences, will be freed under the deal. The first phase of the agreement reached by Israel and Hamas last week covers the ceasefire, the swapping of hostages and prisoners, and the Israeli military withdrawal to the 'yellow line' in Gaza. Subsequent phases will include the governance of Gaza, the future of Hamas and the reconstruction of the enclave."
