Egyptian Plan for Gaza Reconstruction Gains Support Amid U.S. Criticism

Muslim nations convene in Saudi Arabia to back Egypt's proposal as the U.S. and Israel express dissatisfaction with its provisions.

Muslim leaders gather in Jeddah to endorse Egypt's plan to rebuild Gaza, which excludes Hamas and seeks to reinstate the Palestinian Authority.
The U.S. labels the Egyptian proposal as a 'first step' but claims it falls short of President Trump's expectations.
President Trump issues a stark ultimatum to Hamas, demanding the release of all hostages or threatening severe consequences for Gaza's population.
For the first time in decades, U.S. officials engage in direct talks with Hamas in Doha, focusing on hostage negotiations and a potential long-term truce.
Israel and Hamas remain at odds over the next phase of the ceasefire agreement, with disputes over demilitarization and governance in Gaza.
