U.N. Security Council Backs Trump Gaza Plan, Authorizes Stabilization Force and Transitional Authority

Progress depends on firm troop commitments to a clearly defined stabilization mission.

Overview

  • The resolution passed 13–0 with Russia and China abstaining, approving an International Stabilization Force empowered to use “all necessary measures” and a Board of Peace mandated through 2027.
  • The Palestinian Authority welcomed the vote and signaled readiness to cooperate, while Hamas rejected the plan as foreign guardianship and denounced the force’s disarmament role.
  • Israel praised the plan’s focus on demilitarization and deradicalization, even as elements of its government oppose language pointing to a potential Palestinian state.
  • Key operational gaps persist, including which nations will supply troops to the force; Indonesia and Turkey have expressed willingness, but rules of engagement and disarmament details remain unsettled.
  • The framework aims to consolidate the Oct. 10 ceasefire, protect aid corridors, support Gaza’s reconstruction, and outline a conditional pathway to Palestinian self‑determination without a set timeline.
