The European Union is exploring possible support for a new committee established to take over the civil administration of Gaza, according to a document produced by the bloc’s diplomatic arm and seen by Reuters.
“The EU is engaging with the newly established transitional governance structures for Gaza,” the European External Action Service writes in a document circulated to member states.
“The EU is also exploring possible support to the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza,” it adds.
The National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG), a committee of Palestinian technocrats unaffiliated with Hamas or the Palestinian Authority, is supposed to oversee the reconstruction of the devastated Strip, with backing from the US-led Board of Peace.
European foreign ministers will discuss the situation in Gaza during a meeting in Brussels on February 23.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
