U.S. troops not to serve in Gaza

U.S. Vice President JD Vance said that no American troops will be deployed to Gaza. According to him, Washington’s primary role in the plan will be to coordinate among regional players.

The U.S. Vice President noted the International Stabilization Force envisioned under U.S. President Donald Trump’s 20-point Gaza ceasefire plan is still in its early planning stages,

He reiterated that “there are not going to be American boots on the ground in Gaza,” explaining that the U.S. aims “to provide some useful coordination.”

The U.S. Vice President said he had "real optimism" the ceasefire would hold, despite it briefly fracturing two days ago.

"There are going to be moments where it looks like things aren't going particularly well, but given that and given the history of conflict, I think that everybody should be proud of where we are today. Right now I feel very optimistic. Can I say with 100% certainty that it's gonna work? No. But you don't do difficult things by only doing what's 100% certain," Vance said.
