State Department sends $1.25B from other programs to Board of Peace
The $1.25 billion transfer fulfills the U.S. pledge to Trump’s Board of Peace, amid plans to provide up to $10 billion despite criticism over transparency and governance.
- The U.S. State Department is transferring $1.25 billion to the “Board of Peace,” an international body created by Donald Trump to help oversee a Gaza peace plan and reconstruction effort.
- The reconstruction plan follows extensive destruction in Gaza after the October 7, 2023 Hamas attacks and Israel’s military response, which caused widespread damage and significant loss of life.
- The U.S., which supported Israel militarily and financially during the conflict, is now contributing major funds toward rebuilding, meaning American taxpayers are helping finance both the war effort and reconstruction.
