US President Donald Trump is set to lead a major White House meeting focused on a comprehensive strategy for managing Gaza after the war. The announcement was made by Steve Witkoff, the president's special envoy to the Middle East, marking the first public acknowledgment of such a plan by the administration.
The plan comes after months of Washington deferring to regional allies, with Trump's earlier proposals to take over Gaza and relocate its residents facing strong opposition from partners in the Middle East. While Israel expressed support, neighboring countries rejected the idea.
Witkoff described the plan as robust and humanitarian, though details remain scarce. Previous promises of increased aid and expanded humanitarian operations in Gaza have yet to be fully realized, with only partial funding delivered and planned distribution sites still pending.
