Israel Won't Accept Palestinian Authority's Role in Gaza Administration: Netanyahu

The National Committee for the Administration of Gaza adopted a logo similar to the Palestinian Authority emblem to assert legitimacy, sparking Israeli rejection and political tension.

  • On Monday, the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza posted a logo resembling the Palestinian Authority emblem, but the Prime Minister's Office said it was `entirely different` from the one published online.
  • The NCAG was created last month to manage civil governance and initially used a bird emblem; many of the 15 members have ties to the Palestinian Authority, making the new logo notable.
  • The revised emblem is nearly identical to the Palestinian Authority emblem, differing only by a shield with the NCAG acronym, and the NCAG updated its social media accounts replacing the original bird emblem.
  • Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wrote on X that Israel will not accept a Palestinian Authority symbol, and critics like Avigdor Liberman lambasted the move, sparking backlash.
  • The NCAG's role appears limited to technical and logistical tasks, with members not yet in Gaza and expected to coordinate with Ramallah, international aid agencies, and the United Nations, while last week Netanyahu allowed PA representatives at the Rafah Crossing.
