An Israeli security official on Saturday said that US forces are taking part in overseeing and coordinating aid transfer into Gaza with Israel as part of US President Donald Trump’s ceasefire plan.

The Washington Post on Friday reported that the US-led Civil-Military Coordination Centre (CMCC) will replace Israel in overseeing aid into Gaza.

It cited a US official and people familiar with the matter as saying Israel was part of the process but that CMCC would decide what aid enters Gaza and how.

The Israeli security official told Reuters that Israeli security services remain part of policy, supervision and monitoring with decisions made jointly, and that the integration of the CMCC was already underway.
