Israel to resume transfer of PA tax revenue
Israel says it is to resume the transfer of tax revenues it collects on behalf of the Palestinian Authority.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took the decision in co-ordination with the security cabinet, his office said.
Mr Netanyahu froze the transfers last year after the Palestinians gained non-member observer state status at the UN.
The retaliatory move forced the PA to delay the payment of salaries to 150,000 government employees, further weakening the Palestinian economy.
