U.S. service members will arrive in Israel by Sunday to oversee the implementation of the ceasefire with Hamas, Fox News has learned. 

The U.S. troops, all of whom come from the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM), will set up the civil military command center as the ceasefire unfolds, a senior U.S. official said. 

Some of the service members are coming from the U.S., and some were already in the region. Most are with the Army. 

They are experts in logistics, security, engineering and transportation.

Witkoff reportedly told mediators he could have a command center to monitor the ceasefire set up within 2½ weeks.

CENTCOM’s role in monitoring the ceasefire with Qatar and Turkey was a big reassurance to the negotiating parties, according to those involved in the talks.
