UN Security Council Endorses Trump’s Gaza Plan Authorizing International Force

The vote ushers in an implementation phase centered on building an international force with a temporary governing body.

Overview

  • The Council adopted the U.S.-drafted resolution 13–0, with Russia and China abstaining, endorsing a ceasefire framework with a mandate through 31 December 2027.
  • The text authorizes an International Stabilization Force to secure borders with Israel and Egypt, demilitarize Gaza, disarm non‑state groups, protect civilians, and train a Palestinian police, with its composition still undefined.
  • The resolution establishes a transitional Peace Committee slated in the annex to be chaired by President Trump to administer Gaza until reform of the Palestinian Authority advances.
  • The measure newly references a potential path to Palestinian self‑determination and statehood, a prospect Israeli leaders say they reject on any territory.
  • Hamas condemned the decision as imposing international tutelage and objected to disarmament provisions, while the Palestinian Authority signaled support and prospective troop contributors showed hesitation despite U.S. pressure and regional endorsements.
