Reports of the expulsion of the representative of the government of Israel, Eilon Levi, are made by Israeli media.

The Israeli prime minister’s office has not released the reason for the government official’s ouster, but it is speculated to be linked to an online spat with UK Foreign Secretary David Cameron.

In particular, Levy on March 8 wrote a post on X, which he later deleted in response to another by Cameron urging Israel to “allow more aid trucks into Gaza.”

“I hope you also know that there are NO restrictions on food, water, medicine or shelter equipment entering Gaza, and in fact the crossings are OVER capacity,” Mr. Levy responded.

“Try us. Send another 100 trucks a day to Kerem Shalom and we will pick them up,” he added, referring to the Israeli-controlled border crossing.

Two days earlier, he wrote another post criticizing a statement issued by Cameron following a meeting with an Israeli minister in London.

Israel’s Channel 12 News reported on Tuesday that Levy was out of government shortly after the UK Foreign Office wrote to Israel’s Foreign Ministry to express its “surprise” and seek clarification on whether Mr. Levi represented the official position of the Israeli government.

On Wednesday, Israeli media reported that the prime minister’s office confirmed that Levy had been suspended, but gave no further details.

There was no immediate response from Levi himself, but he described himself as a spokesman for the Israeli government in several posts on X on Tuesday.

Levi, 30, was born in the UK and immigrated to Israel in 2014.

He served on Cogat, the Israeli Defense Ministry body that oversees policy on the Palestinian territories, worked as a television news anchor, and most recently was an international media adviser to President Isaac Herzog.
