Process
The initial draft was circulated by the United States on 3 November 2025 which would give a two-year mandate to the International Stabilization Force and set up a Board of Peace. [1] A revised draft was reported on 10 November, which sets benchmarks for Israeli withdrawal tied to Hamas disarmament and requires six-monthly progress reports to be submitted to the Security Council. It welcomes the formation of a Board of Peace and describes it as a transitional governing body to oversee the administration of Gaza. [2] [3] [4] A further revised draft was circulated on 13 November which included a clause supporting Palestinian self-determination and statehood. [5] The same day, Russia proposed an alternative draft which would support options for an International Stabilization Force, but removed references to the Board of Peace. [6] [7] On 14 November, the United States, together with the Muslim-majority countries of Qatar, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Pakistan, Jordan, and Turkey, issued a joint statement urging the Security Council to adopt the latest version of the United States draft. [8] The statement was welcomed by the Palestinian Authority. [9] The United Kingdom also issued a statement in support of the United States proposed draft resolution. [10] A final draft was presented to the Security Council at its 10,046th meeting on 17 November 2025 as Document S/2025/748. [11]
