The session, described by US Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff as a 'large meeting', will center on a comprehensive plan for the region's recovery and governance after hostilities end.
Witkoff emphasized that any future government in Gaza will exclude Hamas, aligning with both Israeli and American positions. He noted recent signals from Hamas indicating openness to a settlement, and highlighted Israel's announcement of substantial aid for Gaza and willingness to continue discussions.
The envoy expressed optimism that a resolution could be reached before the end of the year, pointing to ongoing negotiations and a shift away from maximalist approaches by the parties involved.
