US and Israel mull peacekeepers for the Gaza Strip after Hamas
The US and Israel are discussing options for the future of the Gaza Strip, including the possibility of a multinational force involving American troops if Hamas is ousted. Other options being considered include a peacekeeping force modeled on the one overseeing the Egypt-Israel peace treaty and temporary United Nations oversight. However, US officials have stated that sending troops to Gaza is not currently being considered. The conversations are still at an early stage, and it is unclear if Arab states would be interested in participating.
