The US-established Gaza Board of Peace has finalized its plans for the Strip's governance and reconstruction, but implementation depends on a timeline that remains unclear, according to a report. The committee of Palestinian technocrats tasked with replacing Hamas remains outside Gaza, attending workshops on governance, as disarmament negotiations with the terror group have stalled.
The Gaza Board of Peace — a US-established body overseeing postwar governance and reconstruction — has finalized its operational plans, but the timeline for implementing them remains uncertain, according to a report by The Times of Israel published Monday night. The committee of Palestinian technocrats tasked with replacing Hamas as the governing authority in the Strip has not yet entered Gaza; instead, its members are attending workshops abroad on governance and administrative preparations.
Disarmament talks with Hamas — a key obstacle to any transition — have stalled, the report notes, leaving the board's plans in a holding pattern. The Board was announced by the Trump administration as part of a framework for a postwar Gaza, with an emphasis on civilian governance, reconstruction, and security arrangements.
As The Zioneer has previously reported, the Board of Peace held a two-day summit in Cyprus in late June to advance its agenda. Earlier context items in the desk's archive show ongoing diplomatic efforts on disarmament proposals, with the US denying reports of stalled talks and a revised Palestinian proposal circulating in mid-June. The current report indicates the Board is moving forward with governance preparations despite the political impasse, but implementation hinges on resolving the disarmament question — an issue that remains unresolved.
