The matter will be discussed with Secretary Marco Rubio, the premier stated
The Gaza Executive Board led by the U.S. and composed of officials from countries such as Turkey, Qatar and Egypt “runs contrary to [Israel’s] policy,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said on Saturday.
In a statement, the Prime Minister’s Office 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.”
It added that Israel’s Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar was instructed to discuss the matter with his American counterpart, Marco Rubio—who was named on Friday as a founding member of the Executive Board.
