RAMALLAH, November 29, 2011 (WAFA) – The Palestinian Authority has not been officially informed whether or not Israel will transfer the Palestinian tax revenues it has been withholding for two months, Tuesday said the Director of the Palestinian Government Media Center, Ghassan Khatib.
Khatib, speaking to Voice of Palestine radio, indicated the government is counting on pressure on Israel from external parties to release the Palestinian money.
He said the PA’s acute financial crisis is worsened by the failure of donor Arab states to pay their promised dues on time.
