France and Britain refine plans at UN for Gaza force resolution

France and Britain lead efforts to finalize a U.N. Security Council resolution for a Gaza stabilization force amid post-ceasefire talks, with multiple countries offering troop contributions.

  • On Thursday, France said it is working with Britain and the United States to finalise a U.N. Security Council resolution in the coming days to lay the foundation for a future international force in Gaza after Paris hosted talks on October 10.
  • With a shaky U.S.-mediated ceasefire holding, planning began for an international force after the 193-member U.N. General Assembly last month endorsed a temporary Gaza mission.
  • Design details show a Security Council-backed force authorised to `take all necessary measures`, not a formal United Nations peacekeeping mission, with two dozen U.S. troops in a coordination, oversight role.
  • The United States is speaking to potential contributors including Indonesia, the United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Qatar and Azerbaijan, Italy has said it is willing to participate, and Prabowo Subianto told the U.N. on September 23 Indonesia could deploy 20,000 or more troops if authorised.
  • A resolution is being finalised in the coming days even as terms of reference remain under discussion; British Prime Minister Keir Starmer told Parliament on Tuesday that `The stabilisation force will take some time`.
