Netanyahu Signals Resistance to Turkish Role in Gaza Security Plans

                                              Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has indicated his opposition to the deployment of Turkish forces in the Gaza Strip as part of an international stabilization mission tied to a U.S.-backed ceasefire with Hamas.

Speaking in Jerusalem alongside U.S. Vice President JD Vance, Netanyahu discussed the “day-after” scenario for Gaza, emphasizing security arrangements in the war-torn enclave. While Washington’s plan envisions an International Stabilization Force to oversee the ceasefire and support reconstruction, Netanyahu suggested that Turkey’s involvement would be unacceptable to Israel.

The Israeli leader’s stance reflects long-standing tensions with Ankara, rooted in Turkey’s support for Hamas and its broader regional ambitions. Reports indicate Netanyahu has also sought to block Turkish companies from participating in Gaza’s reconstruction efforts.

Vice President Vance, however, struck a more optimistic tone, expressing confidence that the ceasefire would hold and that the groundwork was being laid for a more stable Middle East.

Netanyahu’s remarks underscore the challenges facing international mediators as they attempt to balance competing regional interests while securing Gaza’s fragile truce.
