Israel said today that it had suspended entry permits for 83,000 Palestinians during the holy Muslim month of Ramzan following a shooting in Tel Aviv that killed four people late yesterday.
Hundreds of residents of the Gaza Strip who had received permits to visit relatives and holy sites during Ramadan would also have access frozen. It said it had frozen permits for 204 relatives of one of the alleged attackers.
Israel had announced last week it was relaxing restrictions on the movement of Palestinians, mainly from the West Bank, but also those living in Gaza, during Ramzan to attend Friday prayers at the Israeli-controlled Al-Aqsa mosque compound in east Jerusalem over the holy month, which began on Monday.
