White House announces Gaza Peace Board leadership
Under the plan, the NCAG will be headed by Dr. Ali Sha’ath, a former deputy minister within the Palestinian Authority, according to an official statement.
Sha’ath was described as “a widely respected technocratic leader who will oversee the restoration of public services, rebuild civil institutions, and stabilize daily life in Gaza, while laying the foundation for long-term governance.”
The announcement also outlined the formation of an Executive Board intended to support governance and service delivery. According to reports, its members include Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan; Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff; Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner; former British prime minister Tony Blair; United Arab Emirates Minister of State for International Cooperation Reem Al-Hashimy; veteran Qatari diplomat Ali Al-Thawadi; Egypt’s intelligence chief Hassan Rashad; Bulgarian diplomat and former UN envoy Nickolay Mladenov, who is based in the UAE; Cypriot-Israeli businessman Yakir Gabay; and Dutch politician Sigrid Kaag.
Reports further noted that the Executive Board responsible for guiding the Board of Peace will be chaired by Trump himself. Its membership is set to include Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Witkoff, Kushner, Blair, billionaire Marc Rowan, World Bank Group President Ajay Banga, and US political adviser Robert Gabriel.
Under the proposed structure, Mladenov will take on the role of High Representative for Gaza, serving as the link between the Board of Peace and the NCAG, while Maj. Gen. Jasper Jeffers is expected to lead the International Stabilization Force (ISF).
