Defence Minister Yoav Gallant called for tax revenues collected by Israel on behalf of the Palestinians in parts of the occupied West Bank under direct Israeli control, to be disbursed without delay. "The funds should be transferred immediately so that these may be used by the operational mechanism of the Palestinian Authority and by the sectors of the Palestinian Authority that are dealing with the prevention of terrorism," he said.

Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich, whose extremist party has strong support among illegal Jewish settlers in the occupied West Bank responded that Gallant was making a"serious mistake" in demanding the release of the funds.
