US prepares deployment of international force near Gaza's borders: first 250 troops agreed with Israel
Israeli media report US military preparations near the Gaza Strip ahead of the deployment of the International Stabilization Force. According to Walla, Netanyahu's government has approved an initial contingent of about 250 troops, although earlier talk was only of 'dozens.' Equipment has been transferred to a former Israeli base, and a pilot city project in Rafah backed by the UAE is under discussion.
