A U.S.-led coordination center for Gaza's postwar rebuilding is set to become operational within days, based in Israel northeast of Gaza, officials told ABC News. The center will be led by a U.S. three-star general and will involve approximately 200 U.S. troops handling logistics, transport, and security. The U.S. is collaborating with international partners on an "International Stabilization Force" for Gaza's security and reconstruction. Separately, Avichay Adraee, a spokesperson for the Israeli military, reported the elimination of the chiefs of staff for Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran, and the Houthi movement, attributing the actions to Yahya Al-Sinwar and other terrorists. The reported casualties include Hamas Chief of Staff Muhammad Al-Deif, Hezbollah's Fouad Shukr, Iran's Mohammad Bagheri, and Houthi Chief of Staff Mohammed Al-Ghamari. Adraee stated that Al-Sinwar initiated the "Al-Aqsa Flood" operation on October 7th. The U.S. coordination center, which is reaching initial capability, is working with partners including Indonesia, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, and Azerbaijan to form the stabilization force. The previous report noted that the IDF had completed its investigation into the March 23 incident, and separate from that, a police officer fired at a suspicious vehicle near the Egyptian embassy in Tel Aviv earlier today without casualties. Questions were also raised in the prior report regarding a UN vehicle at the March 23 incident site, with conflicting accounts about its presence.
