On October 9, 2025, the United States announced the deployment of approximately 200 troops to Israel to help support and monitor the recently agreed ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas concerning Gaza. These troops, who are already stationed across the Middle East, were relocated specifically to establish a civil-military coordination center in Israel, tasked with overseeing the ceasefire’s implementation and facilitating humanitarian aid logistics and security. This multinational effort is expected to include personnel from Egypt, Qatar, Turkey, and the UAE, under the command of US Central Command led by Admiral Brad Cooper. Importantly, no American troops will enter Gaza itself, as their role primarily involves coordination, planning, and support from Israel. The ceasefire, approved by the Israeli government on October 10, 2025, marks the first phase of a broader peace plan that includes the release of hostages and partial Israeli troop withdrawal. Displaced Palestinians began returning to northern Gaza as the ceasefire took effect, while the international community closely watches the situation, with India maintaining a keen interest in stability in the region. This US-led initiative reflects an unprecedented level of American involvement in overseeing Middle East peace efforts.
