Israel blocks construction of Board of Peace military outpost in Gaza
Israel has not permitted Arkel International to begin construction of a military outpost in Gaza for Trump's Board of Peace, two months after the first construction contract was issued in August 2026. The outpost, approximately 100 by 100 meters, would house 150 international troops and is considered a prerequisite for the broader Board of Peace reconstruction program. A source familiar with the matter believes Israel will allow the project to proceed after Israeli elections scheduled for October 27.
