PNN – The Guardian revealed that Israel spied on U.S. personnel at a joint center related to Gaza.
According to the report of Pakistan News Network, quoting Al Mayadeen, informed sources disclosed on Monday that Israeli agents conducted extensive surveillance of American personnel and foreign representatives stationed at a newly established U.S. base in southern occupied Palestine, monitoring both openly and covertly.
The media report stated that the volume of intelligence gathering within the Civil-Military Coordination Center (CMCC) in recent weeks has led to serious tensions between Washington and Israel. Sources said the base commander, General Patrick Frank, summoned his Israeli counterpart and warned that “recording must stop immediately.”
Staff and visiting officials from other countries also expressed concern over Israeli surveillance at the center. Several individuals were advised not to share data inside the building due to fears of sensitive information being collected or misused.
The CMCC was established in October under a 20-point proposal by Donald Trump to end the war, claiming it would monitor the ceasefire, coordinate humanitarian aid, and assist in planning Gaza’s future.
According to the report, U.S. personnel stationed at the center were supposed to support the flow of essential aid to Gaza, a key element of the ceasefire agreement; however, Israel repeatedly restricted or halted the delivery of food, medicine, and other humanitarian items.
When the CMCC began operations, U.S. and Israeli media noted that Israel effectively delegated oversight of aid entry to the U.S. military. Nevertheless, two months after the ceasefire, Washington’s influence remained limited: a U.S. official stated that Israel still controls Gaza’s environment and ultimately decides what items enter the territory.
