On December 30, local time, the Israeli government initiated procedures to suspend the operating licenses of a number of international aid organizations working in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip in Palestine. The activities of the relevant organizations will cease from January next year, and the evacuation of personnel and institutions must be completed by March. According to an Israeli report, the decision stemmed from the failure of some international organizations to complete registration procedures in accordance with legal requirements. In particular, they refused to submit a complete list of their Palestinian employees and were unable to carry out “necessary security checks.” According to reports, Israel has issued official notices to more than 10 international organizations.
