According to AP, senior military officers from Uganda and Burundi visited Israel last week and discussed joining the international force slated to operate in the Gaza Strip under the Trump peace framework. Uganda has already approved its participation, while Burundi is still considering but leaning positively.
The Zioneer reports, citing AP, that senior military officers from Uganda and Burundi visited Israel last week to discuss joining the international force being assembled for Gaza under the Trump peace framework.
Uganda's parliament has already approved sending troops, as The Zioneer reported earlier this month. Burundi has not yet finalized its decision but is reportedly leaning toward participation.
This visit adds African troop contributions to the emerging multinational framework, which the Israeli Security Cabinet has authorized. The international force is intended to help stabilize postwar Gaza and prevent the return of Hamas control.
No timeline for deployment has been announced, and the full composition of the force remains under negotiation.
