Palestine refuses tax revenue from Israel


(MENAFN)

A senior Palestinian official said on Wednesday, June 3rd that the Palestinian Authority (PA) rejected to accept the tax revenue dues from Israel due to all ended agreements with Israel by the Palestinian authorities.

"We confirm our rejection of the money of the tax revenue dues from Israel," Hussein Al-Sheikh, the Palestinian minister of civil affairs, tweeted on Wednesday, June 3rd.

He added, "Refusing to receive the money is an implementation of the Palestinian leadership's decision that all agreements and understandings reached with the Israeli government ended."

According to the bilateral economic agreement signed between Israel and Palestine in Paris in the 1990s, Israel collects taxes on behalf of the Palestinians from the transactions that come to the Palestinian lands through Israeli-controlled crossings.
