Trump’s Gaza Board of Peace issues first building contract for military base

The Trump administration's Board of Peace, established in January to oversee Gaza's reconstruction, has issued its first construction contract for a military outpost to house Moroccan troops. The $150-person base, located within the 60% of Gaza controlled by Israeli forces, is part of a broader plan for an international stabilization force (ISF). The contract, awarded to Louisiana-based Arkel International, remains unfinalized, and the project marks a shift from initial plans to rebuild much of Gaza to a smaller pilot project. The move follows Trump's claim that Hamas has agreed to disarm, despite skepticism about its feasibility, and comes amid ongoing Israeli airstrikes in the region. Morocco has pledged a contingent for the ISF, but the legal framework for their deployment remains unclear.
