Translated from Hebrew
What does the bill do?
The proposal adds authority for the Minister of Interior to revoke the citizenship or permanent residency permit of an Israeli citizen or resident convicted of a terrorism offense or related offenses, where it is proven that they received funds or payment from the Palestinian Authority for carrying out the act. The authority will apply only to people sentenced to actual imprisonment. A person whose status was revoked will be released directly to the territories of the Palestinian Authority. The proposal allows restoration of status if status was revoked and the evidence that led to the revocation turned out to be wrong, but the authority returns if the person violated commitments or an additional payment was received from the Palestinian Authority.
