President Donald Trump will send around 200 troops to Israel to help support and monitor the Gaza peace deal, US officials said on Thursday.
The announcement came as Benjamin Netanyahu's government formally approved the agreement to return the remaining hostages from Gaza.
A ceasefire will go into effect within 24 hours of the cabinet meeting when Israeli troops will also begin to withdraw from Gaza along an agreed-upon line.
Hamas will release the remaining living and dead Israeli hostages within 72 hours after that. Once they are returned, Israel will free 250 Palestinians serving life sentences and 1,700 Gazans who have been held since October 7.
In the first details of how the truce will be enforced, sources revealed that US soldiers will form part of a team that includes allies, NGOs and private sector groups.
US Central Command will establish a 'civil-military coordination center' in Israel that will facilitate the flow of humanitarian aid as well as logistical and security assistance into the war-torn territory, officials told the Associated Press.
The troops will not be sent into Gaza, but will monitor implementation of the ceasefire agreement and the transition to a civilian government in the territory, a source said. The coordination center will be staffed by US troops who have expertise in transportation, planning, security, logistics and engineering, said the official.
American soldiers have already started to arrive and further forces will travel to the region over the weekend to begin planning and efforts to establish the center.

good.
Excellent. Send 2,000 more.
Sounding more and more like Gog and Magog times.
If the Chinese and Russians suggest sending part of a stabilization monitoring force, I’m out. or at least sticking more “hurricane rations”.
I have no problem with this. This is a signal to ones wanting to destroy the process.
Fill in the names.
Iran won’t even notice this...
That’s fine when I first read this I was afraid they would be going into Gaza but staying in Israel that’s fine with me
all the paid soviet trolls here love this because absolutely nothing good can come of it for the USA and their chief adversary, President Trump: of course, 200 won’t be enough, and the end game will be more and more sent until eventually the entire lot will be withdrawn with their tails between their legs .... WTF has gotten into President Trump??? ... has he learned NOTHING from recent history?
Fool. APPLES VS ORANGES. We are not going in to conquer or fight anyone. Israel has already done that. Where’s your posts crying about the 30K troops already stationed in the ME.
200 in Israel is nothing more than a statement. The French committed one(1) guy to fight Saddam and he never left Paris. These guys will not put on a uniform in public.
There are already US troops at a drone base in the Negev and manning the THAAD systems loaned to Israel a year or so ago.

If you had a box of rocks, it would double your IQ
You sound like a leftist sack of Shiite. If you would read the details, none of our troops will be in Gaza.
I was part of US servicemen who served there to assist in training of certain missile/artillery units in Israel what is sadly now a long time ago.
Very pretty girls were my fondest memory, lol. They also liked Americans in uniform. Never paid for a drink.
Went back for work related to oil and gas.
The girls were still pretty.
I am quite confident there will be 1,000 volunteers for the 200 slots.
Guarantee you, every red blooded soldier
“These guys will not put on a uniform in public.”
Absolutely they will. That’s how you get free drinks and attention from the girls.
Those troops will be targeted by Hamas. Why American troops? Send in troops from Turkey or Saudi .
They will be in Israel, not Gaza.
You sound like a typical Nazi labeling people you don't even know. You assume that the people who have been against sending unaccounted-for taxpayer dollars and weapons paid for by taxpayers, to fight another proxy war with Russia in Ukraine are "paid soviet trolls." It just shows how ignorant you are.
I don't give a shit about either country, nor Europe. I give a shit about America's survival...not some shit-stained country the size of Texas that sits 5,000 miles away. Russia and Ukraine are Europe's problem, always have been. If they want to destroy their economies by fighting an unending war with Russia, I say let them. It's no business of ours.
