Background
The Gaza war began in October 2023 following a series of coordinated armed attacks carried out by Hamas and several other Palestinian militant groups in southern Israel on 7 October 2023.
Former British prime minister Tony Blair initially proposed placing the Gaza Strip under international administration in August 2025. United States president Donald Trump presented a similar plan in late September 2025 which was accepted by both the Israeli government and Hamas the following month. The United Nations Security Council adopted Resolution 2803 on 17 November 2025 welcoming the establishment of the Board of Peace.
