Reliable sources have confirmed to AnewZ that the United States has asked Azerbaijan to join a Stabilisation Force in Gaza, as part of a proposed international mission to secure the territory.
The sources also say that Baku has not yet reached a final decision. Azerbaijan’s position is firm: any participation must rest on a United Nations Security Council resolution that grants international legitimacy and sets a clear mandate.
This mission is not a classic UN peacekeeping operation. It is envisioned as a multinational stabilisation force, similar to the peacebuilding frameworks seen after the Balkan conflicts — designed to secure key sites, ensure aid delivery, and prevent the return of armed confrontation while political structures take shape.
What is the International Stabilisation Force (ISF)?
The International Stabilisation Force is a proposed U.S.-backed multinational mission tasked with maintaining security, facilitating humanitarian aid, and overseeing reconstruction in Gaza once hostilities cease. The initiative seeks to prevent renewed violence, assist with rebuilding essential infrastructure, and support a transition toward stable governance.
The United States is not expected to deploy its own troops. Instead, Washington aims to assemble a coalition of trusted regional and international partners, with Azerbaijan seen as a credible contributor capable of providing both diplomatic balance and experience in strategic peace efforts.
Reports in Israeli media say the concept was discussed recently between U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, as Washington and its partners explore options for a post-war security framework in Gaza.
Azerbaijan’s approach on Gaza has remained consistent. Baku coordinates with the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, the Arab League, and the wider Islamic world, stressing that Arab states must first establish a unified vision for Gaza’s future before outside actors step in.
Sources say Arab partners have taken note of Azerbaijan’s balanced posture, rooted in long-standing ties with the Islamic world and cooperation with Palestine.
Diplomacy now moves to New York and as the region walks a fragile path toward stability, Azerbaijan sits at the crossroads of regional responsibility and emerging global expectation.
