Trump unveils Board of Peace with $10B pledge for Gaza security and reconstruction

In Washington, Trump launched a multinational effort around a new Board of Peace, pledging $10 billion to the board and about $7 billion more for Gaza relief and reconstruction. The plan envisions a International Stabilization Force of up to 20,000 troops and a Palestinian police corps (5,000 trained within 60 days, up to 12,000 total), with funding routed through a World Bank account. Demilitarization would be overseen by a civilian authority, and success depends on Hamas disarming and Israeli cooperation, amid cautious international reactions and concerns about an expanded mandate beyond Gaza.

White House presses phase-two Gaza plan despite Netanyahu pushback

The United States is moving ahead with phase two of its Gaza peace plan despite Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s objections, stating the move wasn’t coordinated with Israel. Washington plans to launch the Gaza Board of Peace at Davos and has installed a Palestinian technocratic government led by Ali Shaath, with Nickolay Mladenov as High Representative and an international Executive Board that includes Jared Kushner, Steve Witkoff, Tony Blair, and ministers from Turkey, Qatar, the UAE, and Egypt’s intelligence chief. Netanyahu says he was not consulted, but U.S. officials insist the plan will proceed with or without his agreement. The initiative aims to demilitarize Hamas and stabilize Gaza through governance, reconstruction, and international funding, with a 60-day window to begin disarmament, while officials tout private Hamas openness to the demilitarization terms.

Trump pushes for Hamas demilitarization as Gaza ceasefire enters second phase

Trump escalates pressure for Hamas to fully disarm as the second phase of the US-brokered Gaza ceasefire begins, demanding the return of an Israeli captive and signaling a push to dismantle Hamas' weapons and tunnel network. While no agreement has been reached, the plan also envisions a 'board of peace' to govern Gaza's transition, a potential small-arms buy-back, and a prominent role for figures like Tony Blair. The effort aims at transitional governance and reconstruction—potentially over $70 billion—amid ongoing violence and a severe humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

US Signals Hamas Ready to Demilitarize as Gaza Ceasefire Advances to Phase Two

U.S. officials say Hamas privately signals willingness to disarm under a phased Gaza demilitarization plan as phase two begins, including a new Gaza technocratic government, destruction of tunnels and weapons, disarming heavy arms, and establishing a Gaza police force; Israel remains skeptical, while mediators discuss an international stabilization force and possible Turkish involvement to aid Israeli withdrawal.

US kicks off phase two of Gaza plan, pushing technocratic governance and disarmament

The United States announces the second phase of its Gaza peace plan, establishing a transitional technocratic Palestinian administration in Gaza and moving toward full demilitarization and reconstruction, including disarming Hamas; the plan ties compliance to hostage-recovery and other obligations, with risks of consequences for noncompliance. A 15-member Palestinian Technocratic Committee will lead the new administration, overseen by a Board of Peace chaired by Trump, and an International Stabilisation Force would train Palestinian police. Hamas, PIJ, and regional actors welcomed the move to a transitional phase, but the ceasefire remains fragile amid ongoing casualties and dire humanitarian conditions, and key issues—such as independent Palestinian statehood and full Israeli withdrawal—remain unresolved.

Phase Two of Trump’s Gaza Plan Moves Toward Demilitarization and Reconstruction

The Trump-brokered Gaza plan advances to Phase Two, shifting from a ceasefire to establishing a transitional administration that would oversee demilitarization and reconstruction of Gaza, with Hamas obligations and the return of hostages under scrutiny; questions remain about the provisional governing body's makeup and the durability of any ceasefire amid ongoing violence and humanitarian concerns.

"Israel's Strategy and Prospects for Ending the Conflict in Gaza"

As the conflict between Israel and Hamas nears its end, Israeli cabinet members express that none of the war aims have been achieved, leading to a lack of consensus on post-war strategy. Major political figures, excluding some fringe elements, agree on principles such as demilitarization of Gaza, security control similar to that in the West Bank's Area B, collaboration with moderate Arab nations for rehabilitation, and entrusting non-terror-affiliated Palestinian officials with reconstruction. The debate now focuses on the nuances of these principles for the day after the war.

Putin's Strategy for Victory in the Ukraine War

Putin's Strategy for Victory in the Ukraine War

Russian President Vladimir Putin stated that there will be no peace in Ukraine until Russia achieves its goals, which include denazification, demilitarization, and a neutral status for Ukraine. Putin's strong statements reflect Russia's nationalist narrative and strategic concerns about Ukraine's increasing closeness with NATO. The annual end-of-year news conference, which Putin skipped last year, suggests that the winds of war are currently blowing in Ukraine's favor as it faces challenges in manpower and finances. Additionally, Putin's announcement to run for a fifth term in the upcoming election indicates his potential to become the longest-serving Russian leader since Catherine the Great.

"El-Sisi Proposes Demilitarized Future for Palestinian State"

Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi has suggested that a future Palestinian state could be demilitarized and have temporary international security forces, such as NATO or United Nations forces, until security is achieved for both the Palestinian and Israeli states. El-Sisi's comments came during a joint news conference with the Spanish and Belgian prime ministers, who are seeking support for an international peace conference. Arab nations have rejected the idea of an Arab force providing security in Gaza, and the Spanish prime minister has called for a permanent ceasefire and the establishment of a viable Palestinian state.

Netanyahu's Plan: Demilitarizing Gaza, Not Occupying It

Netanyahu's Plan: Demilitarizing Gaza, Not Occupying It

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated in an interview that Israel does not seek to "occupy" or govern Gaza after its conflict with Hamas, but rather aims to "demilitarize, deradicalize, and rebuild" the enclave. Netanyahu emphasized the need for a "civilian government" to govern Gaza, without specifying who would form such a body. However, Gaza is already considered an occupied territory due to Israel's control over its borders, airspace, and territorial waters. Netanyahu's comments come after he previously stated that Israel would assume responsibility for Gaza's security for an "indefinite period," prompting pushback from the United States. US officials have suggested that the Palestinian Authority should govern Gaza, while Netanyahu opposes a ceasefire with Hamas, stating it would be a "surrender to terror."
