President Donald Trump departed Israel aboard Air Force One to attend a major peace summit in Egypt aimed at ending the Gaza conflict.

He was seen off by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu before heading to Sharm El Sheikh, where he and Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi will co-host talks with over 20 world leaders.

According to the Egyptian presidency, the summit seeks to “end the war in the Gaza Strip, enhance efforts to achieve peace and stability in the Middle East, and usher in a new era of regional security.”

The high-level meeting follows the release of the final 20 Israeli hostages by Hamas after more than two years in captivity.

The hostages were handed over to the Red Cross before reuniting with their families in emotional scenes shared by the Israeli army.

The ceasefire and release deal were brokered through coordinated international efforts.
