The White House has announced the creation of two new committees to support the work of President Donald Trump's Board of Peace, which will oversee postwar management and reconstruction efforts in Gaza. The founding Executive Board brings together leaders from diplomacy, development, and economic sectors, while the Gaza Executive Board includes senior officials from multiple countries and organizations, aiming to advance governance and services in Gaza. Nickolay Mladenov will serve as High Representative for Gaza, acting as a liaison between the Board of Peace and the local administration committee, which recently held its first meeting in Cairo. Additionally, plans for an International Stabilization Force are progressing, with a commander appointed and troop contributions expected to be announced soon, though its mandate appears to be focused on border security and humanitarian aid. The Board of Peace itself is set to convene next week, with several world leaders expected to join, as the United States emphasizes its commitment to supporting Gaza's transition from conflict to peace and development.
