The cabinet announced that funding for Gaza and fighters’ families would be excluded.
JERUSALEM: Israel said on Thursday it would proceed with a tax revenue transfer to the Palestinian Authority in the occupied West Bank but would withhold funds bound for Hamas-ruled Gaza, where the PA helps cover public sector wages and pay for electricity.
The Western-backed PA exercises limited self-rule in the West Bank but does not administer Gaza, where Islamist rival Hamas seized control in a brief civil war in 2007. The PA still has thousands of Gaza civil servants on its payroll. He had rejected an appeal by defence minister Yoav Gallant, who called for the funds to be disbursed to help restore stability to the volatile West Bank where there has been a surge in violence since the Hamas attack.
