Donald Trump appeared to fall asleep during a 'Board of Peace' meeting on Thursday. World leaders and national delegations are in Washington DC today for the inaugural meeting of Donald Trump's Board of Peace.

In the latest video, the US President appeared to drift off to sleep as officials address the leaders. The body, 'Board of Peace' was established to carry out his plans for Gaza’s future after its destruction by Israel, but Trump has expanded its mandate, describing it as “the most consequential international body in history”.

Social media users were quick enough to notice him sleeping at the event.

One of the users wrote on X: "More than two hours into this "Board of Peace" meeting, we are now enduring random world leader open mic time and Trump's eyes are closed."

Another wrote: "That man is fully asleep."

A third user commented: "Such an embarassment. Make it stop."

A fourth user wrote: "He is board of peace."
