President Donald Trump concludes his tour of the Middle East in the United Arab Emirates by attending a breakfast with business leaders and visiting an interfaith worship center named after the Abraham Accords, which he orchestrated.

During his visit to the region, violence flared in the West Bank, with more than 120 people being killed in Gaza.
