United States President Donald Trump is going to Israel and Egypt for the signing of a peace deal between Israel and Hamas.
Israeli hostages are expected to be returned soon.
Mr Trump described the trip as a very special event.
"They had 500-thousand people yesterday and today in Israel. And also, the Muslim and Arab countries are all cheering. Everybody is cheering at one time. That's never happened before. Usually If you have one cheering, the other isn't. The other is the opposite. This is the first time everybody is amazed and they're thrilled, and it's an honor to be involved."

Tens of thousands of pro-Palestinian demonstrators have marched through Sydney in support of those in Gaza.
Hours later, thousands of people from Sydney’s Jewish community gathered to mark two years since the Hamas-led attacks on Israel that killed more than 1,200 people.
Among those addressing the crowd was Indigenous Australian and former Olympian Nova Peris, who drew a connection between Jewish and Aboriginal struggles.
"Your roots are deep, your connection unbroken, and just as our Aboriginal languages connect us to country, ancestors are spirit, so too does the Hebrew connect you to Hashem, and the land of Israel. My people know dispossession; we know the pain of being denied dignity. You too know dispossession, you too know survival, and that is why our struggles echo each other and why our solidarity matters."

Google has told a Senate Hearing in Canberra that the government's new rules banning under-16's from having social media accounts, will be "extremely difficult to enforce".
Rachel Lord says there are already protections in place for users who login without an account on Youtube.
"We block access to age-restricted content for all logged out users. So, that is content that is more suitable for mature audiences. That is also blocked for under 18 account holders as well. And we also disable what we call participation features. So, in a logged-out format you're unable to upload videos or comment on videos."

Qantas is facing potential big fines from the government after hackers leaked the personal data of up to 5.7 million customers online.
Cyber Security Minister Tony Burke says Qantas has a responsibility to protect customer data.
"You can outsource parts of your business, but you don't outsource the law. So the obligations that are there in Qantas, and they know this to make sure that they provide cyber security. And that doesn't just mean having the right technical issues in place, it also means making sure that your people are fully trained. I've often referred to the concept that we don't just need to have the technical firewall. We need to have the human firewall in place as well."+++
