Morocco has signed the implementation agreement governing its participation in the International Stabilization Force (ISF) for Gaza, moving a step closer to deploying military, police and humanitarian personnel under the internationally backed mission to support the enclave’s post-war recovery.
The agreement was signed in Rabat during a meeting attended by Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita, senior defence officials, Nickolay Mladenov, the Board of Peace’s High Representative for Gaza, and senior ISF commanders, according to Morocco’s state news agency MAP.
The accord provides the legal and operational framework for Morocco’s participation in the multinational force.
Under the agreement, the North African country will deploy senior military officers to the ISF’s joint command alongside members of its gendarmerie and police, while also establishing a military field hospital to support humanitarian operations in Gaza.
Although the signing marks a significant milestone, Morocco’s commitment to the force is not new.
