Summary:
At the Doha Forum, Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty called for the rapid deployment of an international stabilization force (ISF) along the "Yellow Line" in Gaza to prevent daily ceasefire violations by Israel and Hamas. He described the proposed ISF as a peacekeeping, not peace-enforcing, mission and noted growing support from countries willing to contribute troops without entering Gaza's heavily contested western "red zone." Abdelatty also criticized Israel's conditions for the Rafah crossing, which has been closed since May 2024, opposing any arrangement that permits only one-way passage for Palestinians and emphasizing the need for return rights after medical evacuations. Additionally, he stated that disarmament of Hamas would only be feasible if done voluntarily, which he deemed unlikely under current circumstances.

According to him, this proposal is gaining support among countries that might contribute troops, especially since many reluctant to deploy deep inside western Gaza’s “red zone.” He emphasized that Egypt envisions a peacekeeping mission, not a peace-enforcement operation. Abdelatty suggested disarmament of Hamas could only be realistic if it occurred voluntarily, which he described as unlikely under current conditions.
