U.S. President Donald Trump has revealed that discussions are already underway for the deployment of an international stabilization force to the Gaza Strip “very soon,” as efforts to contain the escalating humanitarian and security crisis in the region intensify.
Trump said the plan aims to restore calm and ensure humanitarian access after weeks of renewed hostilities between Israel and Hamas. “I expect an international stabilization force in Gaza very soon,” he declared, adding that the mission would involve multiple nations under a coordinated peace and security framework.
While Trump did not disclose specific details about which countries would take part, diplomatic sources suggest that the proposed force could include contingents from the United States, Egypt, Jordan, and select European partners, working under a U.N.-supported mandate.
Trump emphasized that the goal would not be occupation, but temporary stabilization to allow reconstruction, governance reforms, and civilian protection. “The people of Gaza need peace and security, not endless conflict,” he said, stressing that any operation would focus on rebuilding institutions and preventing militant resurgence.
The statement comes amid mounting international concern over civilian casualties and worsening humanitarian conditions in Gaza following months of Israeli military operations. Observers say Trump’s comments signal renewed U.S. diplomatic involvement in the Middle East, potentially setting the stage for a broader multinational peace initiative.
If approved, the stabilization force would mark the most significant international security intervention in Gaza in decades, aiming to create a pathway toward sustainable peace and reconstruction in the war-torn enclave.
