Trump Announces 'Gaza Peace Council' Members

Donald Trump has announced the composition of the 'Gaza Peace Council', which will aim to achieve peace in the region. The council will include figures such as Marco Rubio, Tony Blair, Steve Witkoff, and Jared Kushner. The council will oversee various areas, including the creation of government structures, regional relations, reconstruction, and attracting investment. The announcement coincides with the start of work of a Palestinian technocratic committee that will temporarily govern the Gaza Strip under the supervision of the council. The reconstruction plan will be based on the Egyptian and Arab-Islamic plan, in contrast to Trump's previous plan.
