Briefing Summary

NEWSAR · AI

In January 2026, the US-backed National Committee for Gaza Management (NGAC) released its mission statement outlining goals for restoring services and fostering peace in Gaza. The NGAC, a technocratic body, was established as part of Donald Trump's peace plan and authorized by UN Security Council Resolution 2803. It will operate under the direction of Trump's "Board of Peace" and with the support of a High Representative for Gaza. The NGAC aims to rebuild Gaza's infrastructure and governance, but faces challenges due to widespread destruction from the recent war and skepticism about its autonomy. Concerns also exist regarding the pro-Israel composition of the "Board of Peace" and the "Gaza executive board," which lack Palestinian representation.

The technocratic body will operate under the direction of Trump’s ‘board of peace’, stacked with pro-Israel figures.Published On 18 Jan 2026The Palestinian committee tasked with overseeing the future administration of Gaza as part of a US-backed ceasefire plan has released what it says is a “mission statement”, laying out its key priorities and goals.The general commissioner of the National Committee for Gaza Management (NGAC), Ali Shaath, said that the technocratic body would seek to restore core services and cultivate a society “rooted in peace”.Recommended Stories list of 3 itemslist 1 of 3Palestinian child shot dead by Israeli troops in occupied West Banklist 2 of 3Trump asks Turkiye’s Erdogan, Egypt’s el-Sisi to join Gaza ‘board of peace’list 3 of 3Trump’s ‘board of peace’ appears to seek wider mandate beyond Gazaend of list“Under the guidance of the Board of Peace, chaired by [US] President Donald J Trump, and with the support and assistance of the High Representative for Gaza, our mission is to rebuild the Gaza Strip not just in infrastructure but also in spirit,” Shaath said in a statement.The NGAC was established as part of Trump’s 20-point peace plan for Gaza and authorised under United Nations Security Council Resolution 2803. The White House has said it will be concerned with the day-to-day rebuilding and stabilisation of the enclave, “while laying the foundation for long-term, self-sustaining governance”.Under Trump’s plan, the reconstruction of Gaza would be broadly overseen by a “board of peace” and more closely guided by a “Gaza executive board”.The NGAC faces enormous challenges. Gaza has been physically destroyed after more than two years of Israel’s genocidal war, and there is widespread scepticism from Palestinians over how much autonomy the body will have.Those concerns have been compounded by the presence of firm supporters of Israel, and a lack of Palestinians, so far, on the board of peace and the Gaza executive board.
