Israel’s foreign minister says his government will not allow Turkish troops to take part in a future international peace force in Gaza. The United States has proposed creating a force to oversee the ceasefire agreement in the Israel-Hamas war. Israel's Foreign Minister Gideon Saar said Monday that Israel opposes Turkey's participation because of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s hostility to Israel. The 20-point ceasefire agreement brokered by U.S. President Donald Trump does not mention which countries would provide troops. Countries that are considering taking part also want more clarity on the force’s mandate.
