Israel says it will enforce ban on NGOs for failing to disclose Palestinian staff
Israeli authorities on Thursday said that 37 international NGOs operating in Gaza had not complied with a deadline to meet "security and transparency" standards by failing to disclose information on their Palestinian staff.
Israel will enforce a ban on their activities, a spokesperson for the Ministry of Diaspora Affairs and Combating Antisemitism, Gilad Zwick said.
"Organisations that have failed to meet required security and transparency standards will have their licenses suspended," Zwick was quoted by AFP as saying.
The UN has warned that the ban will exacerbate the humanitarian situation in Gaza.
