The Palestinian Authority has decided to modify its stipend distribution to families of Palestinians imprisoned or killed by Israel, a practice that has faced U.S. and Israeli condemnation. This shift appears to be an effort to align with American legal stipulations and attract foreign aid amid economic struggles. The changes will ensure that financial support to families is based on social welfare needs rather than on political actions, reflecting broader changes in Palestinian governance under President Mahmoud Abbas.
On Monday, the Palestinian Authority announced a shift in its long-standing practice of providing stipends to families of jailed or killed Palestinians, responding to U.S. pressure.
The Palestinian Authority's decision to reform its payment system aims to comply with American law and secure much-needed foreign aid to ease economic distress.
