Historic shift as Morocco poised to become first Arab nation joining multinational security mission.
Morocco, Greece, and Albania are reportedly in advanced discussions with the United States regarding participation in an international stabilization force in the Gaza Strip, according to Kan 11 News.
Morocco is expected to become the first Arab nation to formally join the initiative — a significant diplomatic development reflecting growing regional alignment with Western-backed security frameworks.
Morocco restored ties with Israel under the Abraham Accords, brokered during the presidency of Donald Trump. Since then, cooperation between Jerusalem and Rabat has steadily expanded in defense, intelligence, and economic sectors.
US military representatives stationed in Kiryat Gat have reportedly contacted the Israel Defense Forces Southern Command to coordinate deployment logistics.
A new multinational base is expected to be established between Rafah and Khan Yunis in southern Gaza. The installation will reportedly host military representatives from participating countries, along with contractors tasked with planning and constructing the facility. Construction preparations are expected to begin by the end of the month.
Indonesia Signals Major Contribution
Last week, Indonesia approved the potential deployment of thousands of troops to Gaza as part of the US-backed initiative. On Sunday, Indonesia’s military stated that up to 8,000 soldiers could be ready by the end of June.
The force is part of a broader stabilization framework initiated by President Trump, aimed at maintaining order, preventing terror regrouping, and overseeing reconstruction efforts following prolonged conflict.
Strategic Implications
The participation of NATO-aligned Greece and Albania, alongside Morocco and potentially Indonesia, suggests a widening coalition structure. Analysts view Morocco’s involvement as particularly symbolic, marking a deeper normalization shift within parts of the Arab world.
If finalized, the multinational force could reshape Gaza’s post-conflict security architecture and signal a new phase of regional cooperation aligned against extremist destabilization.
