At the inaugural meeting of the Board of Peace in Washington, D.C., on 19 February 2026, nine member states pledged a combined $7 billion toward humanitarian relief and reconstruction efforts in war-torn Gaza, U.S. President Donald Trump announced.
Trump described the commitments as a first step toward stabilising the Palestinian territory after years of conflict. The countries that contributed include Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, the United Arab Emirates, Morocco, Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Uzbekistan and Kuwait, Trump said, although detailed breakdowns of individual country pledges were not immediately available.
In addition to funding, several nations have agreed to support the board’s wider efforts, which include plans for a multinational International Stabilization Force. Indonesia has pledged a significant troop contingent, with other countries including Morocco, Kazakhstan, Kosovo and Albania also committing military contributions, while Egypt and Jordan are expected to train police forces.
Trump also announced that the United States would contribute $10 billion to the Board of Peace initiative, which was established under United Nations Security Council Resolution 2803 with the aim of overseeing reconstruction and stabilisation in Gaza following the conflict. Although the total pledged falls short of the estimated $70 billion needed for full reconstruction, organisers said the funds represent an investment in long-term stability and rebuilding.
