World leaders are gathering in the Egyptian resort of Sharm El-Sheikh for a “peace summit” aimed at finalising a permanent truce in Gaza.

Trump will then fly to Sharm el-Sheikh in Egypt where he will co-chair a “peace summit” attended by the leaders of more than 20 countries aimed at finalising a permanent truce in Gaza.

Donald Trump will co-chair the summit with Egyptian president Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi after the US president travels to Israel on Monday to address its parliament, the Knesset.

Mahmoud Abbas, the Palestinian Authority president, would also attend the summit, an Axios reporter said on Sunday, citing a senior Palestinian official.
