US EditionThe U.S. Plan for Gaza Won UN Backing; Carrying It Out Could Be Far More Difficult
Implementation of the UN-endorsed US plan faces political and security hurdles as Israel, Hamas, and the Palestinian Authority avoid phase two commitments, prolonging Gaza's fragile ceasefire.
- On Monday, the U.N. Security Council approved a U.S.-drafted resolution endorsing President Donald Trump's 20-point plan for the Gaza Strip, authorizing an International Stabilization Force, a transitional administration, and a Board of Peace to oversee reconstruction under a U.N. mandate.
- Nearly five weeks after the ceasefire, Israel, Hamas and the Palestinian Authority are resisting phase two due to political, military, and security costs; Israel demands recovery of remains, Hamas won't disarm, and the PA hasn't completed reforms.
- Nearly all Palestinians remain displaced and dependent on aid while Hamas controls nearly half of Gaza and rebuilding has barely begun, with reconstruction unlikely without Hamas disarmament and a technocratic, apolitical committee of Palestinians to run civil services.
- Hamas denounced the U.N. resolution's international guardianship over Gaza Monday, while the Palestinian Authority welcomed it but faced uncertain Palestinian public acceptance and potential resentment.
- Analysts say the deadlock could hold or trigger alternative outcomes, and Israeli military planners are preparing contingency military plans for disarmament if the ceasefire fails.
