AID and human rights organisations have accused Israel of waging an “aggressive campaign” to silence groups critical of the occupation of Palestine through spreading smears and false information.
The Israeli government released The Money Trail report last week accusing more than a dozen European Union (EU) funded groups of promoting “boycotts against Israel” and having links to terrorism.
Tel Aviv demanded that the EU cut funding to a range of aid and human rights groups supporting Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank.
