Israel said on Saturday it objected to the line-up of a Gaza panel that will operate under US President Donald Trump‘s Board of Peace, which oversees post-war governance in the Palestinian territory.
The office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said, “The announcement regarding the composition of the Gaza Executive Board, which is subordinate to the Board of Peace, was not coordinated with Israel and runs contrary to its policy.”
“The Prime Minister has instructed the Foreign Affairs Minister to contact the US Secretary of State on this matter.”
The moves came after the Palestinian committee of technocrats tasked with governing Gaza under the oversight of the Board of Peace began held its first meeting in Cairo, attended by Kushner. (AFP)
