Israel adamant that it will not accept Turkish armed forces in Gaza under Trump's 20-point peace plan

President Donald Trump has said he expects a US-coordinated international stabilisation force to be on the ground in Gaza "very soon" as part of his postwar plan for the enclave, which is still suffering a full-blown humanitarian crisis amid continued Israeli bombing.

"It's going to be very soon. And Gaza is working out very well," said the president on Thursday, adding that an alliance of "very powerful countries" had volunteered to intervene if any problems arose with the Palestinian armed group Hamas, which has not yet confirmed it will disarm.

Secretary-General Antonio Guterres told Al Jazeera on Tuesday that any stabilisation force must have "full international legitimacy" to support Palestinians in Gaza.
