Israel Revokes Palestinian FM’s Travel Permit

Israel Revokes Palestinian FM’s Travel Permit

Israel revoked the Palestinian foreign minister’s travel permit, part of a series of punitive steps against the Palestinians. Israel’s government approved the steps to penalize the Palestinians in retaliation for them pushing the UN’s highest judicial body to give its opinion on the Israeli presence in Judea and Samaria.  It was not clear whether the permits of other officials had been revoked as well.
