US President Donald Trump arrived in Tel Aviv on Monday to address the Israeli parliament, the Knesset, on the day when Israel and Hamas are exchanging prisoners of war as part of the first stage of Trump's Gaza peace deal.
Trump began his Knesset address by saying it's end of war and beginning of age of faith and hope.
"It is now a very exciting time for Israel and the entire Middle East", Trump also said.
The United States is going to be helping the Gaza Strip to restore the fundamentals of stability, safety, dignity and economic development, US President Donald Trump said.
"And the total focus of Gazans must be on restoring the fundamentals of stability, safety, dignity and economic development so they can finally have the better life that their children really do deserve after all these decades of horror, I intend to be a partner in this effort in the sense that we are going to help and we are going to do something that became unbelievably popular. Everybody wants to be on it. It is called the Board of peace," Trump said in his address to the Knesset.
