Denmark Halts Aid to Palestinian NGOs over Terror Ties
(Ynet News) Itamar Eichner - Denmark's Foreign Ministry announced on Friday that it was halting financial aid to several Palestinian NGOs over ties with terror groups in the wake of an internal investigation. In addition, Copenhagen set stricter conditions for Palestinian NGOs' eligibility for aid in the future. Starting in 2018, aid will be provided to only 10 Palestinian NGOs instead of 24. Israel Strategic Affairs Minister Gilad Erdan called "on other nations on the European continent to take the same measure of moral responsibility and take similar steps."
