Middle East Peace Committee Calls on Israel to Halt Gaza Military Strikes

Recently, the international organization "Board of Peace" sent an envoy team to Israel to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, urging Israel to stop its military attacks in the Gaza Strip. However, the envoy team announced that Israel will not withdraw from the Gaza Strip until Hamas completely disarms.

The Board of Peace is an international organization led by the US government, established in January 2026 with the goal of promoting peace-building worldwide. The organization was formally established during the 56th World Economic Forum. According to United Nations Security Council Resolution 2803, the Board of Peace has been authorized to oversee the progress of the Gaza Peace Plan and is responsible for assisting in the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip. The resolution also approved the deployment of a temporary peacekeeping force by the Board of Peace to assist in the security work of the Gaza Strip.

The establishment of the Board of Peace is aimed at addressing the ongoing conflict in the Gaza Strip. The organization's goal is to improve the situation in the Gaza Strip through promoting peace dialogue and economic reconstruction. However, the establishment of the Board of Peace has not received warm welcome from most world leaders, and many Western countries have not expressed support for the organization. Meanwhile, policy analysts and officials have questioned the governance model of the Board of Peace, pointing out that the organization's leadership structure and decision-making mechanism have defects.

Recent conflicts in the Gaza Strip have had a severe impact on local residents' lives. The standoff between Israel and Hamas has resulted in the destruction of numerous homes and infrastructure, forcing tens of thousands of civilians to flee their homes. The Board of Peace's intervention aims to promote dialogue between Israel and Hamas and find a peaceful solution to the conflict. However, the Board's efforts have faced numerous challenges, including the organization's credibility, resource scarcity, and low trust among the parties involved.

International society has continued to monitor the Board of Peace's efforts. Many countries and international organizations are observing the Board's progress and considering how to better support its work. Although the Board's task is extremely challenging, the organization's establishment represents the international community's concern and attention to the situation in the Gaza Strip.

For Taiwan, the Board of Peace's work may have limited direct relevance to its interests, but the organization's efforts are significant for regional stability and security. The conflict in the Gaza Strip poses a severe challenge to regional stability and security, and the Board of Peace's work aims to promote peaceful dialogue and cooperation in the region, playing a crucial role in maintaining regional security and stability. Furthermore, the Board of Peace's experience and achievements can serve as a reference and inspiration for Taiwan's work in regional cooperation and peaceful dialogue.
