U.S. President Donald Trump said on Thursday that his government had good talks on Gaza and that he thought it was coming up with solutions to problems in the Middle East.
Trump made the comments at a joint White House press conference with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer when he was asked whether phase two of the ceasefire in Gaza would come to fruition.
"I think we're going to come up with some pretty good solutions, but phase one is almost complete," Trump said.

Egyptian authorities have deported dozens of foreign nationals who arrived in Egypt to take part in a pro-Palestinian march and dozens more face deportation, the organisers and airport and security sources said on Thursday.
The high-seas drama fizzled into an economy-class return as eight pro-Palestinian activists, including French MEP and professional provocateur Rima Hassan, were deported from Israel this week after their failed bid to break the Gaza naval blockade — and, perhaps, make TikToks of themselves doing it.
