The US is leading a group of about 10 nations trying to find solutions to end the war in Gaza and install a stable government in the post-conflict Strip, the New York Times reports.

The efforts are focused on three axes, which include the release of hostages and a cease-fire, the reform of the Palestinian Authority and the normalization of Saudi Arabia’s relations with Israel in exchange for the establishment of a Palestinian state.

The article says that some ideas are being considered, but acknowledges that some of them are “temporary, far-fetched, or face strong resistance from some members.”

Among the scenarios under consideration are “the transfer of power within the Palestinian Authority from the current president, Mahmoud Abbas, to a new prime minister, leaving Abbas an honorary role».

In the same context, the scenario of sending an “Arab peacekeeping force to Gaza in order to strengthen the new Palestinian administration there” is considered.

They are also considering “submitting a resolution to the UN Security Council, with the support of the United States, that would recognize the right of the Palestinians to establish a state,” the article said.

However, as the New York Times reports, significant hurdles must be overcome in any negotiation. Most notably, Israel’s government says it will not allow full Palestinian rule, raising doubts about whether progress can be made. At the same time, the Israeli military campaign did not destroy Hamas, so it is unclear how Hamas will be persuaded to step aside while it still controls part of Gaza.
