Jordan's King Abdullah II Receives Invitation to Gaza Oversight Council

Jordan's King Abdullah II has received an invitation from US President Donald Trump to join a “Peace Council” for Gaza. The council will oversee the temporary governance of the area, which has been under a fragile ceasefire since October. The Jordanian Foreign Ministry is currently reviewing the legal aspects of the participation, in accordance with the country's domestic law. This move signals an attempt to involve regional leaders in the effort to stabilize Gaza following recent conflicts.
