U.S. President Donald Trump said Wednesday that an announcement related to the Gaza Strip is likely within the next 24 hours, signaling potential developments in the U.S. approach to the worsening humanitarian crisis in the besieged enclave.
“We're going to see what's happening. A lot of talk going on about Gaza right now. You know that, right?” Trump told reporters. “So, you'll be knowing probably in the next 24 hours.”
The remarks come just a day after Trump teased a “very big announcement,” which he described as “very positive” but did not link specifically to Gaza. It remains unclear whether both statements refer to the same issue.
Sources suggest the announcement may relate to a U.S.–Israeli aid delivery proposal for Gaza, which is expected to be outlined in a briefing to the UN Security Council by Trump’s special Middle East envoy, Steve Witkoff. The proposal involves the use of private American security contractors to deliver aid boxes directly to individuals inside Gaza.
The plan was recently approved by Israel’s Security Cabinet, but has been rejected by the United Nations and numerous international aid groups, which argue it violates established humanitarian principles and could place both civilians and aid workers at risk. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres voiced opposition last month, citing concerns about neutrality, independence, and operational safety.
The closed-door UN briefing, expected to take place this week, has drawn skepticism. “To the best of our knowledge, this is an unofficial briefing done in the U.S. mission,” Greece’s UN mission told Anadolu, as it currently holds the Security Council presidency for May.
Trump’s remarks also come just days before his Middle East tour, during which he will attend a summit with Gulf leaders focusing on Iran and Gaza. The trip, spanning Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE, is expected to shape U.S. strategy in the region and may include announcements on both humanitarian and security initiatives.
As the Gaza crisis deepens and international pressure mounts, attention is now fixed on Washington’s next steps—and whether Thursday’s announcement will mark a shift in U.S. policy or further controversy.
