Israeli media reports have claimed that Pakistan’s military could be part of an international force proposed to stabilise Gaza following two years of war.

According to Israeli outlets Ynet News and The Times of Israel, troops from Indonesia, Azerbaijan, and possibly Pakistan may be included in the multinational force.

Indonesia has already offered to contribute troops, while Azerbaijan has also expressed willingness to participate.

The reports said Israel’s cabinet committee was briefed in a closed-door session that the proposed force would aim to coordinate humanitarian aid distribution, train local police units, and prevent renewed violence in the future.

However, Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has made it clear that Israel will determine which countries’ forces can join the mission, citing specific preferences.

For instance, the participation of Turkish troops has reportedly been rejected.

Meanwhile, Special Assistant to the Prime Minister Rana Sanaullah has said that if Pakistan were given a role in establishing peace and assisting Palestinians in Gaza, “nothing could be better than that.”

Speaking to a private TV talk, he clarified that it was his personal opinion and that he was unaware of any formal offer made to the government of Pakistan.

Rana Sanaullah added that Pakistan was among eight nations that had supported the idea of stabilising Gaza and ending “inappropriate military presence” in the region.

The reports further mentioned that the US administration — under President Donald Trump’s 20-point plan — is working with Arab and other partners to quickly deploy a temporary International Stabilisation Force to help train local police and facilitate humanitarian relief efforts.

So far, there has been no official confirmation or announcement from Pakistan regarding any participation in the proposed mission.
