The Trump administration is planning to appoint an American two-star general to command the International Stabilization Force in Gaza, Axios reports, citing two US officials and two Israeli officials.

Reuters could not immediately confirm the report.

US President Donald Trump said yesterday he will announce the members of the Board of Peace overseeing the postwar management of Gaza early next year, in the latest sign that the effort is stalling.

Last week, US officials told The Times of Israel that Washington was aiming to announce a transition to phase two of Trump’s Gaza peace deal, as well as the members of the various bodies involved, by Christmas.
