Fox News: Israel's UN ambassador slams Palestinian plan for Gaza, demands PA first 'condemn Hamas'
Israel's UN Ambassador Danny Danon has expressed strong disapproval of the Palestinian Authority's (PA) "Relief and Early Recovery Plan" for Gaza, which seeks $3.5 billion for reconstruction without addressing Hamas' role in the conflict. He criticized the PA for failing to condemn terrorism and for not including disarmament of Hamas in its proposal.
The PA's plan, which includes establishing a "Governmental Emergency Operations Room," places the responsibility for humanitarian aid on Israel, despite Israel's withdrawal from Gaza in 2005. Danon emphasized that the PA lacks the moral authority to lead such initiatives, especially without acknowledging recent violence.

The complaint highlights policies that permit students to access facilities based on self-identified gender, which critics argue leads to sex discrimination. The investigation aligns with efforts to enforce regulations reinstated from the Trump administration aimed at protecting girls in schools.
