    Report: Kahlon warns PA against inflammatory steps against Gaza

    Finance Minister Moshe Kahlon warned the Palestinian Authority on Sunday not to take unilateral steps that might ignite Gaza, according to News 2.

    PA Minister for Civil Affairs Hussein Ash-Sheikh warned Moshe Kahlon in a telephone call that on April 1, the PA would stop paying salaries to tens of thousands of officials in Gaza. Their salary cuts will cause the Hamas-ruled area to sink into a humanitarian crisis. Kahlon made it clear to Ash-Sheikh that Israel would not agree that the internal war between the PA and Hamas would "explode on Israel."
