Morocco has signed an agreement to participate in the International Stabilization Force for Gaza, according to a statement from Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita. The signing reflects the commitment of King Mohammed VI to peace and stability in the Middle East and his ongoing support for the Palestinian people.
The agreement was signed on July 15, 2026, in Rabat, as confirmed by the Moroccan Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The force aims to maintain security and facilitate humanitarian aid delivery in Gaza following the recent ceasefire.
Bourita emphasized that Morocco's participation aligns with its historical role as a mediator in the region. The kingdom has consistently advocated for a two-state solution and has provided humanitarian assistance to Palestinians.
Details on the number of Moroccan troops or the specific timeline for deployment have not been disclosed. The force is expected to operate under a United Nations mandate, though further verification is pending.
