Morocco and Albania are preparing to join the International Stabilization Force in Gaza, which will take on peacekeeping responsibilities during the Trump administration’s Phase 2 ceasefire plan between Israel and Hamas, the Jerusalem Post reported Monday. Kan News added that Greece is also set to participate.

The news come shortly after Indonesia announced it would be the first country to formally join the mission, and just ahead of the Board of Peace summit scheduled to take place in the United States on Thursday. According to the Associated Press, Indonesia’s contribution will begin in April, starting with about 1,000 troops and expanding to around 8,000 by June; a larger force than previously projected.

There is still no confirmed deployment schedule for Morocco, Albania, or Greece, but reports in mid-January indicated Morocco was expected to be one of the largest contributors alongside Indonesia. Morocco has maintained close defense ties with Israel since the signing of the Abraham Accords in 2020.

Indonesia has already begun selecting and screening troops for the mission, the AP reported. Still, officials noted the deployment could be delayed if conditions in Gaza worsen or if renewed clashes with Hamas make the situation unsuitable for peacekeepers on the ground.

In recent months, several other nations – including the United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Italy, Azerbaijan, Pakistan, Qatar, Turkey and others – were mentioned as potential contributors to the stabilization force, but none have progressed beyond general statements of interest.

Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto is expected to visit Washington for Trump’s Board of Peace summit on February 19.

Neither the ISF as a whole nor Indonesia’s contingent is expected to engage directly with Hamas or attempt to disarm the group. The mission is instead intended to monitor existing ceasefire lines and potentially help manage border-related issues.
