USA's president Donald Trump was in the middle of a meeting when he suddenly received a note from foreign minister Marco Rubio. It asked him to approve a post in social media about the Gaza agreement. We are very close to a deal in the Middle East, said Trump after seeing the note.

Trump held a meeting with conservative influencers when Marco Rubio delivered a handwritten note. It contained a request to Trump to give the green light for a post about the negotiations in the Middle East:

"You need to approve a Truth Social post as soon as possible so that you become the first to tell about the agreement", it said on the note, according to an AP photographer who was in the room in the White House.

Rubio whispered a few words to Trump. After a while, the president got up from the table.

We are very close to a deal in the Middle East, said Trump.

Then he left the room without giving any further details.

Just a few hours earlier, Trump had told reporters that he might travel to the Middle East later in the week.

It may be that I go there towards the end of the week, maybe on Sunday, said the president.

At the same time, the White House announced that Trump has a "routine" medical check-up to attend outside of Washington DC on Friday.
