Cooperation with Israel in the field of security have been going since 1993. But this time, the Palestinian authority stop any cooperation in the field of security with Israel. The Central Committee of the Palestine liberation Organization, whose decisions are binding for the Palestinian authority, decided to terminate the cooperation.

Kiev/ Ukraine in Arabic/ The reason for this decision was the freezing of Israel transfers to the Palestinian national authority taxes collected by Israel on behalf of and for the PNA.

It is reported euronews.com. To the categorical action came after Israel froze the transfer of the Palestinian national authority taxes.

And this entailed that nonadministrative Palestine could not pay out wages.

Ahmad Abdel-Rahman, member of the Central Committee of the PLO: “Israel must take full responsibility towards the Palestinian people in the occupied territories. It is the duty of the occupying power, under international law”.

Israel announced the freezing of Palestinian tax revenues in January, in response to the intention of Palestine to become a member of the International criminal court.

This decision deprived the Palestinian authority to pay back wages.

The refusal of the Palestinian authority from cooperation with Israeli security forces may become a serious challenge to Israel's security.
