- Phase two under the U.S.-brokered deal envisions Hamas disarming, further Israeli withdrawals, deployment of an International Stabilisation Force and an internationally supervised technocratic authority for Gaza overseen by a Trump‑chaired Board of Peace.
- Qatar’s prime minister said daily Israeli breaches endanger the agreement and place mediators in a difficult position, while the White House privately warned Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that a recent commander killing may have violated the truce.
- Humanitarian conditions continue to deteriorate, with Gaza officials reporting only about 39% of allocated aid trucks reaching destinations as winter storms hit and deaths from exposure are recorded.
- Secretary of State Marco Rubio said he is confident multiple nations will join the ISF and called Pakistan a potential key contributor, as the White House targets January announcements and Netanyahu is expected to meet President Trump on December 29.
