The report and warning are issued ahead of the bi-annual meeting of the Ad Hoc Liaison Committee in Brussels.
The United Nations Mideast envoy, Nickolay Mladenov, has warned that the viability of the Palestinian Authority , which nominally controls the Israeli-occupied Palestinian West Bank, is under threat and facing unprecedented challenges.
The report and warning were issued ahead of the bi-annual meeting of the Ad Hoc Liaison Committee in Brussels on April 30 and comes in the wake of Israel withholding millions of dollars in taxes that it transfers to the PA due to what it says is the latter paying out money to “terrorists”. According to the report, these decisions have caused the Palestinian government to lose some 65% of its revenue and forced it to take extreme austerity measures.
