The plan includes the disarmament of unauthorized personnel and the deployment of an International Stabilization Force.
A 15-member committee, named the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza, has been formed to manage governance. Ali Shaath, appointed to lead the committee, stated that the focus would be on non-military solutions and reconstruction.

Humanitarian and Reconstruction Efforts
Despite the ceasefire, humanitarian conditions in Gaza remain dire. Jorge Moreira da Silva from the United Nations Office for Project Services called for expedited reconstruction efforts, estimating a requirement of $52 billion for recovery.
The committee plans to address these needs by providing immediate relief and utilizing debris for land reclamation projects. The ongoing conflict has resulted in significant destruction and loss of life, with substantial challenges ahead for rebuilding efforts.
