Donald Trump has been urged to help end the Gaza war by hundreds of former Israeli military, intelligence, and diplomatic officials. In an open letter, the ex-officials appealed to the former U.S. president to intervene and help de-escalate the conflict, which they say is endangering Israel’s future.
Officials Call for Immediate Action
The letter states that ongoing military operations in Gaza are damaging Israel’s global standing and national security. The group believes Trump holds the influence needed to convince Israel’s leadership to pursue a ceasefire. By stepping in, they argue, he could help prevent further violence and encourage a diplomatic solution.
This is not a common move from Israel’s security establishment, making the coordinated letter especially notable. The message warns that continuing the war will only fuel more extremism and global isolation.
Gaza Crisis Draws Increasing Concern
Those who urged Trump to end the Gaza war also expressed deep concern about the humanitarian situation in the region. Civilians in Gaza have suffered significant losses, and the signatories fear the conflict could trigger broader instability across the Middle East.
They insist that diplomatic alternatives have been ignored for too long. According to the letter, a political resolution is the only path to lasting peace.
Trump Remains Silent So Far
At the time of publication, Trump has not commented on the appeal. However, the letter has generated international attention and added pressure on all parties involved in the conflict.
As the war continues, the call for Trump to help broker peace adds a new dimension to international efforts aimed at ending hostilities and addressing the humanitarian toll.
