UN Agencies and Association of International Development Agencies (AIDA) who works in Occupied Palestinian Territory urge the Israeli government to allow humanitarian and human rights organizations to continue their work,” the joint statement said, which also called on the Israeli authorities to “refrain from any action” that impedes the “critical” work of these groups.

The text was signed by the departments UN dedicated to humanitarian action and development, and by a group of 83 international non-governmental organizations active in the Palestinian territories.

“The Israeli authorities have not provided United Nations agencies and associated NGOs operating in the Occupied Palestinian Territory with any credible evidence that support these designations,” the statement said.

They call them “terrorists”.

At the same time, they referred to the fact that Israel called these organizations terrorist because of their alleged links with the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). Although the initial appointment took place in October last year, it was ratified on Wednesday after appeals filed by NGOs were rejected.

Organizations mentioned: Al-Haq, which monitors the observance of human rights in the occupied territories, the Association for Human Rights and Support for Prisoners (Addamir), the Bisan Research Center, the Union of Women’s Committees of Palestine and the Union of Agricultural Labor Committees.

Added to this were office closures. working committees on health, previously considered illegal and for which a Spanish aid worker worked Juana Ruiz Sanchez who recently spent ten months in an Israeli prison on charges of “providing services to an illegal organization” and “obtaining and smuggling money” into the West Bank.
