It is noteworthy that the lists included organizations that, in the opinion of the Israeli authorities, called for a boycott of the country because of its policy towards the Palestinian territories.

According to the Minister for Security of the country Gilad Erdan, organizations that advocate a boycott should know that the State of Israel will act against them and will not allow entering the country's territory in order to harm its citizens.

The blacklist turned out to be organizations that called on businesses, artists and universities to sever ties with Israel and insisted on sanctions against that country.

In particular, this is the Paris-based "Association of Franco-Palestinian Solidarity", the British charity War on Want, "The American Committee of Friends in the Service of Society" and others.



It is noted that all these organizations are allegedly linked to the global movement Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS), which advocates economic, cultural and political pressure on Israel to end its occupation of Palestinian territories. The movement brings together thousands of participants around the world.

As previously reported by URA-Inform, anti-immigration decisions of President Donald Trump about the ban on the entry of migrants from the countries of the Middle East and a number of African countries have already started.
