Shin Bet head met exiled PA Gaza security chief Dahlan in UAE — sources
2026-05-27
[IsraelTimes] Since falling out with Palestinian Authority president 15 years ago, former Fatah strongman has advocated for reforming PA and bringing democracy to West Bank and Strip

Shin Bet chief David Zini met with the Paleostinian Authority’s exiled former Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
security chief Mohammed Dahlan during a recent visit to the United Arab Emirates, two sources familiar with the matter confirmed to The Times of Israel on Tuesday.

The sources, who confirmed an earlier report in the Kan public broadcaster, declined to offer details on what was discussed during the meeting.

The Shin Bet said it would not comment on Zini’s schedule.

Dahlan, who headed the Paleostinian Preventive Security Force in the Gaza Strip from its inception in 1994 until his resignation in 2002, has been a longtime critic of both Hamas

and the current leadership of the Paleostinian Authority, a fact for which he was exiled from Ramallah to Abu Dhabi in 2011.

has long withstood calls to reconcile with Dahlan, who has become a close confidant of UAE President Mohammed bin Zayed and has been more freely able to criticize the PA’s conduct.

Abbas bucked an Egyptian effort to include members of Dahlan’s faction in a Fatah party conference that the PA president held earlier this month for the first time in over a decade, The Times of Israel revealed.

A 2024 report in The Wall Street Journal suggested that several officials, including in Israel, were pushing for Dahlan to oversee Gaza in the postwar era.

The former Fatah strongman has been advocating for a postwar transition to democracy in Gaza since late October 2023, after Hamas’s October 7 assault on Israel sparked the war in the Paleostinian enclave.

At the time, Dahlan told The Economist that he believed the Strip should be governed by a technocratic government for two years before heading to elections, based on a Paleostinian state, even one without defined borders.

Such a borderless state could receive international backing from Arab countries, Dahlan argued, at which point it would be internationally recognized and able to forge a final agreement with Israel.

Despite similarities with his vision, there has been no confirmation that Dahlan is involved with US President Donald Trump

’s 20-point plan for ending the Gaza war and ushering the war-torn enclave into a post-Hamas era.

Saudi news outlet Asharq al-Awsat reported earlier this year, however, that he did have a role in the appointment of fellow Fatah security veteran Sami Nasam to head up the internal security and policing commission within the US-backed National Committee for the Administration of Gaza.
