  "summary": "US President Donald Trump's envoys, including Jared Kushner and Nickolay Mladenov, met with Egyptian, Qatari, and Turkish mediators in Cairo. Hamas officials were present at some of these meetings, according to a diplomatic source. The talks aimed to advance Trump's Gaza peace plan, which calls for the immediate cessation of military operations in Gaza, Hamas disarmament, and Israeli troop withdrawal.\n\nThe meetings took place as Israel continued airstrikes in Gaza. According to the Israeli military, aircraft struck two Islamic Jihad and Hamas militants in Khan Younis and Nuseirat, wounding at least five Palestinians. Israel has resumed airstrikes in recent days after scaling back attacks earlier this month.\n\nEight Muslim countries, including Egypt, Jordan, Qatar, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, and Pakistan, issued a joint statement condemning Israel's rejection of Trump's plan, saying it undermines collective efforts to achieve a just and lasting peace. Netanyahu's office said the plan was unacceptable, citing concerns about ending targeted assassinations of Hamas militants.",
