US President Donald Trump arrived Monday at Ben Gurion Airport in Israel, marking his first visit to Tel Aviv since his re-election.

Trump is set to address the Israeli Knesset before heading to Egypt to chair the ‘Peace Summit’ in Sharm El-Sheikh, as Hamas released Israeli detainees.

Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One when asked if he was confident the conflict between Israel and Hamas was over, Trump said: “The war is over. Okay? Got that?” expressing confidence that the ceasefire “will hold.”

Before departing from Andrews Air Force Base near Washington, Trump described his Middle East trip as “very special.”
