the head of the National Security Council, Tzachi Hanegbi recently met with
Faraj with the approval of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Al-Ghad
reported.
KAN indicated that Israeli Minister of Defense Yoav Galant
proposed having the Faraj temporarily manage Gaza after the war ends. The
channel also stated that Israel is considering using Faraj to build an
alternative to Hamas on the day following the war.
However, the channel noted that the preferred option was not
to rely on the PA in the war.
Notably, Faraj's name was suggested as a possible
alternative to Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. According to Israeli press
reports, Faraj is the most powerful and senior security figure in the PA. He is
considered close to Abbas and has excellent relations with senior Israeli
security officials.
Reportedly, Faraj coordinates on behalf of the authority
with both the Shin Bet and the CIA, as well as Arab and Western intelligence
agencies.
