Morocco and Kosovo have each trained 500 soldiers to serve in the international stabilization force for Gaza, according to reports citing diplomatic and security sources. The training is part of preparations for a multinational mission intended to help maintain order and support humanitarian efforts in the Palestinian enclave.
The force is being assembled under the framework of United Nations Security Council Resolution 2803, which authorized the establishment of an international stabilization force for Gaza. The resolution, adopted in November 2025, calls for a mission to support a ceasefire, protect civilians, and facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid.
Morocco and Kosovo are among several countries that have pledged personnel to the force. Other contributors include Azerbaijan, Indonesia, and the United Arab Emirates. The exact timeline for deployment has not been announced, and the force's mandate and rules of engagement are still being finalized.
The situation in Gaza remains fragile, with ongoing humanitarian challenges. The international community has emphasized the need for a coordinated approach to stabilize the region and address the needs of the civilian population.
