Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Wednesday that he has accepted an invitation from U.S. President Donald Trump to join the Board of Peace for Gaza.

In a statement, Netanyahu said he had agreed to take part as a member of the board, which he said would be composed of world leaders. No further details were provided.

The announcement came days after Netanyahu's office said Israel opposed the composition of the board, which Trump unveiled as part of his plan to end the Gaza war.

The prime minister's office said at that time that the board, which Trump introduced as part of his plan to end the Gaza war, had been announced without coordination with Israel and ran counter to Israeli policy.
