Israel’s finance minister told Netanyahu: I will not transfer the tax money to the Palestinian Authority this month in light of its support for the Hamas massacre and its appeal to The Hague. Demands an urgent cabinet discussion on the issue.
Clarification: Due to the PA's lack of statehood status, Israel is responsible for collecting customs duties and other tax revenues on its behalf. It transfers them to Ramallah on a monthly basis, providing funds that amount to nearly 65 percent of the Palestinian annual budget, which is roughly NIS 18 billion ($5.27 billion).
The Palestinian Authority has for decades provided financial compensation and other benefits to families of terrorists jailed in Israeli prisons and "martyrs” killed while carrying out attacks against Israelis. These payments cost the PA more than $300 million annually, at 8% of its budget.
