A handful of protesters stand on a hill opposite the Sde Boker summit holding a sign protesting the Palestinians’ absence from the meetings.

“Haven’t you forgotten someone?” says a sign held by members of the left-wing Women Wage Peace group.

While Israeli, Arab and American foreign ministers are meeting today in Sde Boker, senior Palestinian officials are set to meet with Jordan’s King Abdullah II in Ramallah.

Ramallah has lambasted the Abraham Accords — which led to agreements between Israel and Morocco, the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain, whose foreign ministers are in Sde Boker — as a duplicitous attempt to bypass the Palestinians.
