(The Guardian) Trump plans to appoint US general to lead Gaza security force - report
The Trump administration is planning to appoint an American two-star general to command the international stabilization force (ISF) in Gaza, Axios reports, citing two unnamed US officials and two unnamed Israeli officials.
The UN security council last month approved the creation of the ISF to provide security and stablization for the region for at least two years, which would include securing humanitarian aid corridors and working on the “permanent decommissioning of weapons from non-state armed groups”. The stablization forces comes from Donald Trump’s 20-point plan for Gaza, which also includes the disarmament of Hamas, the demilitarization of Gaza and the creation of the board of peace to oversee governance of Gaza and will ultimately be chaired by Trump.
This means that should Trump appoint a US general to head the stabilization force, the US will be in command of not just overseeing the governance of the enclave but also its security force.
Two unnamed Israeli officials told Axios that UN ambassador Mike Waltz told Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, of these plans and stressed that having an American general in charge should give Israel confidence. “Waltz even said he knows the general personally and stressed he is a very serious guy,” one Israeli official said to Axios.
