A group of United States legislators has urged the Biden administration to publicly reject Israel’s labeling of six Palestinian human rights organizations as terrorist groups.
In a letter addressed to US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines on Monday, 21 members of Congress decried the absence of available evidence backing the Israeli allegations against the Palestinian organisations.
The letter reads that the US must always and consistently speak out against efforts by all countries attempting to undermine civil society and the necessary work of humanitarian organizations.
