Israeli Group Warns Oxfam


(MENAFN- Qatar News Agency) An Israeli legal rights group has urged the British-based charity Oxfam to cut ties with Palestinian organizations. Shurat Hadin, said Oxfam could be held liable in future attacks if it does not cut ties with the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, the Israeli broadcaster Arutz Sheva reported Sunday. "It has been brought to our attention that Oxfam International, Oxfam Novib, and other Oxfam affiliates provide financial aid and additional forms of material support to the Union of Health Workers Committees (UHWC) and the Union of Agricultural Workers Committees (UAWC), instrumentalities of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) in the Hamas controlled Gaza Strip and the Palestinian Authority," Shurat Hadin's Attorney Nitsana Darshan-Leitner said. "Oxfam readily acknowledges it works very closely with these two Palestinian groups and provides them financial support. If Oxfam does not cut ties with the UHWC and UAWC, Shurat Hadin "will seek all available relief and remedies against Oxfam and its officers in all relevant jurisdictions," Darshan-Leitner said
