The leaders of Egypt, Qatar, the United States and Turkey are expected to meet this week as part of efforts to ensure the implementation of the understandings reached under the Gaza ceasefire agreement, according to a report by Walla.

An Egyptian source familiar with the negotiations between Israel and Hamas said the mediating countries are working to guarantee that the agreement’s central provisions are carried out. The source said the greatest challenge lies in the extent of Israel’s commitment to implementing the deal.

According to the source, intensive Egyptian contacts are relying in part on pressure being exerted by President Donald Trump on Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu. The source said the mediators are seeking continued American involvement to help advance the agreement and ensure that the parties fulfill their obligations.

The planned meeting is expected to focus on completing the main steps of the agreement and maintaining coordination among the mediating countries amid ongoing tensions surrounding its implementation.
