Israel Halts Transfer of Tax Funds to PA
(Ynet News) Elior Levy - Israel has suspended the transfer of tax revenue to the Palestinian Authority in response to its alliance with Hamas. Finance Minister Yuval Steinitz said Sunday that his ministry did not cancel the funds transfer, but rather only suspended it temporarily. "We need to know if these funds will now find their way to Hamas, possibly to fund the purchase of rockets that will then be fired on the south. The burden of proof lies with the Palestinian Authority, to show that not even one shekel is given to Hamas and funds terror."
