Israel to withhold Palestinian taxes over UN bid
- Palestine: Monday, December 03 - 2012 at 04:32
The Israeli finance minister has said the government will not transfer tax and tariff funds it collects for the Palestinian Authority this month, in response to their successful bid for upgraded UN status, AFP has reported. "I have no intention of transferring the taxes due to the Palestinian Authority this month. They will be used to pay the Palestinian Authority's debts to the Israeli electricity company," said Yuval Steinitz. Israel normally transfers $120m per month before deductions, Steinitz's spokeswoman told the news service.
