Pakistan is expected to announce its decision soon regarding troop contribution to the International Stabilisation Force (ISF) for Gaza, with officials confirming that high-level deliberations are at an “advanced stage” and leaning toward participation. This move is a critical component of the US-brokered Gaza Peace Agreement, which aims to establish internal security, disarm resistance elements, and secure borders under a transitional Palestinian authority.

Islamabad views its potential involvement as both a profound moral duty and a strategic diplomatic necessity. Officials stress the country’s globally recognized track record in UN peacekeeping, citing its history of deploying over 200,000 personnel in international missions. This extensive experience, they contend, uniquely equips Pakistani forces to lend credibility and crucial operational strength to the ISF, which is being assembled with troops from Muslim-majority nations like Indonesia and Azerbaijan.
While the government maintains a strong preference for the deployment to occur under a comprehensive UN mandate, participation is also seen as a strategic opportunity to strengthen warming Pakistan US relations and diplomatic ties with key regional players. As the region navigates this fragile transition, Pakistan is poised to act responsibly, underscoring its commitment to peace and stability in the Middle East.
