\t\t\t\tBy signing up, you agree to the terms<\/a><\/p>\n But on Monday, the NCAG updated its social media accounts with a new logo<\/a> that appeared to be identical to the one of the Palestinian Authority, which features a golden eagle looking to its right with a Palestinian flag on its chest.<\/p>\n The only difference between the new NCAG logo and that of the PA is that the shield below the eagle has the NCAG acronym, rather than the word Palestine.<\/p>\n The logo change appeared to be an attempt by the technocratic committee to attach itself to the PA, despite Israeli efforts to separate the two bodies completely.<\/p>\n The Palestinian Authority governs day-to-day affairs in parts of the West Bank.\u00a0Netanyahu has vehemently opposed the PA having a role in governing postwar Gaza, but he did concede last week that PA representatives will be part of the operational mechanism at the Rafah Crossing between Gaza and Egypt.<\/p>\n Most of the NCAG\u2019s members have ties to the PA, even if they are not current officials in the body. They are all originally from Gaza, though some have been residing outside the Strip in recent years.<\/p>\n A US official and an Arab diplomat told The Times of Israel on Monday that its members were aiming to enter the Strip via the Rafah Crossing next week.<\/p>\n A source familiar with the matter said the NCAG will be based west of the Yellow Line ceasefire demarcation \u2014 the side not controlled by Israel.<\/p>\n The committee\u2019s mission statement says the panel is \u201cdedicated to transforming the transitional period in Gaza into a foundation for lasting Palestinian prosperity\u201d and \u201cto rebuild the Gaza Strip not just in infrastructure but also in spirit.\u201d<\/p>\n It goes on:\u00a0\u201cWe are committed to establishing security, restoring the essential services that form the bedrock of human dignity, such as electricity, water, healthcare, and education, as well as cultivating a society rooted in peace, democracy, and justice. Operating with the highest standards of integrity and transparency, the NCAG will forge a productive economy capable of replacing unemployment with opportunity for all.<\/p>\n \u201cWe embrace peace, through which we strive to secure the path to true Palestinian rights and self-determination.\u201d<\/p>\n
