U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry is planning to announce the convention of a peace summit aimed at renewing negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians on Saturday, Jordanian newspaper Ad-Dustor reported.

The summit will take place in Amman and will include representatives of the United States and Jordan, in addition to Israeli and Palestinian negotiators.

According to the report, Kerry intended to formally announce the summit at the press conference he was slated to hold Saturday at the U.S. embassy in Amman. The press conference, meant to have been held in the afternoon hours, was postponed. According to a senior Israeli official, it will be held after Kerry's Saturday meetings with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are concluded.

The official confirmed the Jordanian newspapers report, saying that "there is a high probability a four-way summit will take place, perhaps as soon as this week."

The Jordanian paper also reported that on Friday, Kerry conveyed Israel's responses to the Palestinians' demands to Abbas. According to Ad-Dustor, Kerry told him that Palestinian demands, the release of prisoners among them, would be gradually addressed, and would not be solved at once.

Kerry also reportedly stated to Abbas that the issues of border-drawing and Israel's security demands would be at the heart of the intensive negotiations.
