European countries are voicing doubt over their involvement in a U.S.-led coordination centre for Gaza, questioning its effectiveness in improving aid flows or political stability in the region.

The Civil-Military Coordination Centre, established in southern Israel as part of Donald Trump's initiative to end the conflict in Gaza, faces criticism for failing to achieve significant progress. Diplomatic sources indicate that some European nations are reducing their presence, viewing the centre as 'directionless'.

While the centre was envisioned to facilitate humanitarian aid and governance measures, concerns arise about its continued relevance as Israel maintains control over aid policy. The situation underscores the complexities of implementing peace plans when strategic aims remain unmet.
