Israel pans Gaza technocratic committee's change of logo to PA imagery

Israel has strongly criticized the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza after it changed its logo to closely resemble that of the Palestinian Authority. The move has heightened tensions, with Israeli leaders insisting that the Palestinian Authority will not play a role in governing postwar Gaza. The committee, formed under a ceasefire agreement and led by former Palestinian Authority deputy minister Ali Shaath, originally used a distinct logo but recently adopted one featuring a golden eagle similar to the Palestinian Authority's emblem, sparking Israeli objections.

The logo change is seen as an attempt by the technocratic committee to align itself with the Palestinian Authority, despite Israel's efforts to keep the two entities separate. Most members of the committee have ties to the Palestinian Authority and are originally from Gaza, although some have lived outside the territory in recent years. The committee's stated mission is to rebuild Gaza and foster peace, democracy, and prosperity during the transitional period.
