US President Donald Trump announced the formation of a “Peace Council” to oversee the resolution of the Gaza Strip conflict during a September 29 press conference following discussions with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The council, led by Trump himself, will monitor municipal and public service operations in Gaza, according to his statement. Trump also highlighted the inclusion of former British Prime Minister Tony Blair in the initiative. The plan aligns with broader efforts to achieve Middle East peace, as Trump emphasized that Gaza’s settlement is part of a larger vision. He noted Arab and Muslim nations have pledged to disarm Palestinian Hamas, while Israel has agreed to adhere to the White House’s proposed framework.
