The United States is poised to unveil a controversial plan for post-war Gaza leadership, with President Trump expected to push ahead with the second phase of his Gaza strategy. Sources reveal that a committee of Palestinian technocrats has been appointed to govern the war-torn territory, marking a significant shift in the region's political landscape. This development has sparked debate, as rivals Fatah and Hamas have both endorsed the committee, raising questions about the potential implications for the future of Gaza and the broader Palestinian-Israeli conflict. The committee, led by Ali Shaath, a former deputy minister in the Western-backed Palestinian Authority, is set to take charge of Gaza's reconstruction and governance. However, the plan has faced criticism and challenges, including Israeli airstrikes in Gaza, Hamas' refusal to disarm, and delays in reopening the Rafah border crossing. Trump's determination to move forward with the second phase, which includes the establishment of a Board of Peace and the deployment of peacekeeping forces, has further intensified the debate. As the committee prepares to meet with the former U.N. Middle East envoy, Nickolay Mladenov, in Cairo, the international community watches closely, anticipating the impact of this controversial leadership transition on the future of Gaza and the Palestinian people.
