The Israeli government has discussed removing British officials from the U.S.-led International Gaza Support Center in Kiryat Gat, with similar action reportedly considered for Germany and Italy. The center is staffed by U.S. officers alongside IDF, military and diplomatic representatives from about 50 countries and organizations. Israel removed Dutch representatives this week after the Netherlands moved to boycott Israeli products from Judea and Samaria, eastern Jerusalem and the Golan Heights; Spain’s delegation had already been removed. Sources said further removals may require Board of Peace approval, while another said Israel controls entry to its territory.
