Why Indonesia’s lead role in Gaza peacekeeping force carries high political risk

AI Summary

medium article 2 min

In February 2026, Hamas urged President Trump's "Board of Peace" to halt Israel's alleged violations of the Gaza deal brokered in October 2025. This plea comes as the board prepares for its first formal meeting in Washington, D.C., while Palestinians await the full implementation of the peace agreement's second phase. Hamas claims that Israel's actions, including killings, displacement, and a siege, continue despite the truce. According to the Health Ministry, over 600 Palestinians have been killed and 1,600 wounded in Gaza since the agreement began. Hamas also called for the board to facilitate the entry of technocrats to govern and rebuild Gaza, lift the siege, and open border crossings, warning against Israel using the council as a cover for continued aggression. Recent reports indicate Israeli shelling and gunfire in Gaza City and Khan Younis.
