When will the United Nations Security Council give a mandate for a foreign (i.e., non-Israeli) peacekeeping force to operate in Gaza with the consent of Israel?
Closed Nov 17, 2025 10:08PM UTC

Whether Israel has provided consent will be determined using credible, open-source reporting but must be current as of a mandate being given, and the timing of actual deployment is immaterial.
