(AFP-France 24) The Palestinian Authority, in deep financial crisis since it refused tax transfers from Israel in February, said Thursday it had accepted a payment of $568 million from Israel. "An agreement was reached a few days ago with the Israeli side for transferring duties on oil and fuel which the Palestinian Authority bought in Israel," said PA Civil Affairs Minister Hussein Al-Sheikh. Israel in February decided to withhold around $10 million a month from revenues of some $190 million per month it collects on the PA's behalf, triggering Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to say he would accept either all or nothing. The deduction corresponds to what the PA paid Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails, or their families. Israel says the policy of paying Palestinians who have carried out attacks on Israelis encourages further violence. 2019-08-23 00:00:00Full Article
