US President Donald Trump has said a US-coordinated International Security Force (ISF) is expected to be deployed in Gaza “very soon,” nearly two years into Israel’s war on the besieged territory.

It’s going to be very soon. And Gaza is working out very well,” Trump said Thursday evening at a White House event with Central Asian leaders, referring to the multinational post-conflict task force that will oversee stability efforts in Gaza.

Washington has already circulated a draft UN Security Council (UNSC) resolution among partner nations aimed at reinforcing Trump’s 20-point Gaza peace plan — including authorization for the ISF, the US mission said on Wednesday.

US Ambassador Mike Waltz shared the draft with the 10 elected Security Council members and regional partners — Türkiye, Egypt, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia — according to a statement from the US mission. No voting date has yet been set.

The statement said the resolution “authorises the International Stabilisation Force,” as outlined in Trump’s peace proposal.

Diplomatic sources told media that several countries have expressed willingness to contribute troops to the ISF but emphasized the need for a UN mandate before any deployment.

Under President Trump’s bold leadership, the United States will again deliver results at the UN — not endless talk,” the US spokesperson said.

The creation of the international force is a central component of the October 10 ceasefire agreement between Israel and the Hamas resistance group. Under the deal, troops from Arab and Muslim countries would be stationed in Gaza to manage security as Israeli forces withdraw.

Meanwhile, Israeli troops killed a 15-year-old Palestinian boy early Thursday during a military raid in the town of Al-Yamun, west of Jenin in the occupied West Bank, according to the WAFA news agency.
