Trump Announces Gaza ‘Board of Peace’ Has Been Formed

  • On January 15, 2026, US President Donald Trump announced the formation of a Gaza 'Board of Peace' and said he will chair the oversight body.
  • Phase Two moves from the ceasefire into demilitarization, technocratic governance and reconstruction, establishing a 15-member National Committee for the Administration of Gaza to manage the transition.
  • The White House said the founding executive board includes Marco Rubio, Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner, Ajay Banga, Marc Rowan, Robert Gabriel, and reports linked Sir Tony Blair and Nickolay Mladenov to oversight roles.
  • An International Stabilisation Force will be established to secure Gaza, led by Major General Jasper Jeffers, with the board overseeing governance and reconstruction, which the United Nations estimates could cost $70 billion.
  • The ceasefire's fragility and humanitarian shortfalls continue to shape responses, as Hamas has not publicly committed to disarmament, Israel has not pledged full withdrawal, and Blair's role sparks regional controversy.
