Norway to Facilitate Transfer of Frozen Tax Funds to Palestinian Authority

In a bid to prevent the financial collapse of the Palestinian Authority, Norway will transfer tax revenues withheld by Israel amid ongoing conflict.

Norway announces it will transfer tax funds to the Palestinian Authority, previously frozen due to a dispute with Israel.
The funds are crucial for the PA to pay salaries and provide essential services in the West Bank.
Israel had reduced transfers following Hamas' attack on October 7, aiming to exclude funds spent on Gaza.
The agreement aims to prevent the collapse of the Palestinian Authority and promote a political process towards a two-state solution.
Critics argue the deal reflects collusion with Israel's far-right government, undermining efforts to compel Israel to fulfill its treaty obligations.
