Israel's leader Benjamin Netanyahu has convened a meeting with his top advisers to discuss US President Donald Trump's Board of Peace for Gaza, after Israel said it was not included in talks about the makeup of one of the board's lower bodies.

The US on Saturday named the first members of the Gaza Executive Board - including Turkey's foreign minister, a Qatari official, former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair, and Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner.

Netanyahu's office has since stated that this was not coordinated with Israel and runs contrary to its policy.

The Board of Peace is part of Trump's 20-point plan to end the Israel-Hamas war and is expected to temporarily oversee the running of Gaza.

The exact structure of the board, which will also manage Gaza's reconstruction, remains unclear and members are still being invited.

The Gaza Executive Board will be responsible for overseeing all on-the-ground work of another administrative group, the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG), according to a statement released by the White House.

So far, the only Israeli member on the Gaza Executive Board is Yakir Gabay, a businessman born in Israel and now based in Cyprus. There are no Palestinians on either senior board.

Israel's far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir wrote on X: The Gaza Strip does not need any 'administrative committee' to oversee its 'rehabilitation' - it needs to be cleansed of Hamas terrorists.

Israel's opposition leader Yair Lapid called the announcement a diplomatic failure for Israel.

Officials from Qatar and Turkey, which have both been critical of Israel's military actions in Gaza, are confirmed members of the advisory panel.

The overarching Board of Peace will include world leaders, with President Trump as its chairman, as stated by the White House. While those members have not been announced, the leaders of the UK, Hungary, Argentina, Jordan, Turkey, India, and Egypt have reportedly been invited.

Meanwhile, the United Nations warned on Saturday that the humanitarian crisis in Gaza is far from over. The UN estimates that around 80% of buildings in Gaza have been destroyed or damaged, leaving families struggling with the winter weather and a lack of food and shelter.

Israel claims it is facilitating humanitarian assistance while blaming the UN for its failures to distribute supplies already in Gaza.
