US President Donald Trump said on Thursday he expects a US-coordinated international stabilisation force to be on the ground in Gaza "very soon," following two years of war on the enclave.
The multinational force, likely to include troops from Egypt, Qatar, Turkey and the United Arab Emirates, is part of Trump's post-war governance plan for Gaza.
"It's going to be very soon. And Gaza is working out very well," Trump said at a White House function with Central Asian leaders.
"You haven't been hearing too much about problems, and I'll tell you, we've had countries that have volunteered if there's a problem with Hamas."
Meanwhile, Israeli forces detained eight Palestinians on Friday during a series of raids across the occupied West Bank as the army and settlers continue to attack Palestinians in the occupied territory. The forces carried out raids in Tulkarm, Bethlehem and Nablus.
