Work Permits Revoked for 164 Relatives of Nablus Terrorists
(Times of Israel) Emanuel Fabian - The Israel Defense Ministry's Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT) said Sunday it had revoked entry permits to Israel from 164 family members of Palestinian "terror elements" in the West Bank city of Nablus. In the past year, more than 2,500 work permits belonging to family members of Palestinian terrorists have been revoked. Maj.-Gen. Ghassan Alian, head of COGAT, said: "The terrorists... should know that their identity is well known to the security system and that the path of terror they choose will also affect their families, who will not be able to continue earning a living in Israel."
