The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) condemned the decision of the Israeli occupation authorities to deduct the allowances of the families of martyred, imprisoned and wounded Palestinians from the Palestinian tax revenues and considered this action to be an act of piracy and collective punishment for the Palestinian people. It also constitutes a violation of international law and Israel commitments under signed conventions.
The OIC also called on the international community to act to compel Israel to end its arbitrary measures, which exacerbate the financial, economic and humanitarian crisis encountered by the Palestinian people.
