The White House announced new leadership and oversight structures as part of President Donald Trump’s plan to end the conflict in Gaza and move the region toward long-term stability.

In a statement released Friday, the administration said the formation of the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza marks a key step in Phase Two of the president’s 20-point Comprehensive Plan to End the Gaza Conflict.

The committee will be led by Dr. Ali Sha’ath, whom the administration described as a technocratic leader with experience in public administration and economic development. The committee’s role will include restoring public services, rebuilding civil institutions, and stabilizing daily life in Gaza while preparing for long-term self-governance.

The administration said the move aligns with United Nations Security Council Resolution 2803, which endorsed the president’s plan and supported the creation of a Board of Peace to oversee implementation.

According to the statement, President Trump will chair the Board of Peace, which will provide strategic oversight, coordinate international resources, and ensure accountability throughout Gaza’s transition. A founding Executive Board has been appointed, with members tasked with portfolios tied to governance, reconstruction, investment, and regional relations.

The White House also announced the appointment of senior advisors to manage daily operations and strategy, as well as a High Representative for Gaza who will serve as the on-the-ground link between the Board of Peace and Gaza’s administrative leadership.

To address security concerns, the administration said an International Stabilization Force will operate under a designated commander to support demilitarization, maintain order, and enable humanitarian aid and reconstruction efforts.

The statement said the United States will work closely with Israel, Arab partners, and the broader international community to support the transitional framework and urged cooperation from all parties involved. Additional appointments are expected in the coming weeks.
