Translated from Hebrew
What does the bill do?
The proposal amends the Citizenship Law (1952) and the Entry into Israel Law (1952) to add authority for the Minister of Interior to revoke the citizenship or residency permit of a person convicted of a terrorism offense or a related offense, where it is established that they received payment from the Palestinian Authority for carrying out the act. A person whose status was revoked will be released only to the territories of the Palestinian Authority. If the person proves that they returned all the funds and will not receive further payments, the Minister of Interior may restore their status. The status can be revoked again if it is proven that the person received an additional payment.
