Moscow expects Washington to provide details about its idea for an international stabilization force for the Gaza Strip, Russian Permanent Representative to the United Nations Vasily Nebenzya said. "We are waiting for more specifics from the American side about the deployment of international stabilization forces to the Strip, including the makeup, size, and mandate of the mission," he pointed out at a UN Security Council meeting on the Middle East. "The use of force must be severely restricted so that peacekeepers don’t become a party to the conflict," Nebenzya stressed. Under the deal, Israeli forces withdrew from central areas of the enclave to the so-called yellow line but retained control over more than 50% of the Strip’s territory. The second phase of the Gaza deal envisages the withdrawal of Israeli troops, the deployment of an international stabilization force, and the launch of enclave governance structures, including the Board of Peace.
