Overview
- Resolution 2803 passed 13–0 with Russia and China abstaining, backing the U.S. 20-point plan and approving a two-year mandate through the end of 2027.
- The International Stabilisation Force is empowered to secure Gaza, support demilitarisation, decommission weapons and use all necessary measures in line with international law.
- A transitional Board of Peace will oversee reconstruction and governance with a Palestinian technocratic committee, and President Donald Trump has said he intends to chair it.
- Israel welcomed the plan’s focus on full demilitarisation, Hamas rejected it as international trusteeship and opposed the force’s disarmament role, and the Palestinian Authority expressed readiness to implement the resolution.
- Key details remain unsettled, including troop contributors and rules of engagement, the timing and benchmarks for Israeli withdrawal, the Board’s membership, and arrangements to scale humanitarian aid.
