US President Donald Trump said Sunday that member states of the new Board of Peace will announce pledges exceeding $5 billion for Gaza reconstruction and thousands of personnel for a planned international stabilization force during a Thursday gathering in Washington, Anadolu reports.
“On February 19th, 2026, I will again be joined by Board of Peace members at the Donald J. Trump Institute of Peace in Washington, D.C., where we will announce that member states have pledged more than $5 billion dollars toward the Gaza humanitarian and reconstruction efforts,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social.
Member states have also “committed thousands of personnel to the International Stabilization Force and local police to maintain security and peace for Gazans,” he added.
The White House last month announced the formation of a “technocratic” National Committee for the Administration of Gaza to oversee the transition of power as part of Trump’s 20-point plan for the war-battered enclave.
