00:00Welcome back. Israel has announced that it will suspend the operations of dozens of
00:10agro-organizations working in Gaza within the next 36 hours. According to the Israeli
00:14government, the decision is due to this organization's failure to meet the stringent
00:18new requirements to hand over personal details of Palestinian and international staff deployed
00:23in the devastated territory. The list of groups affected by the ban includes some of the world's
00:28best known humanitarian organizations such as ActionAid, the International Rescue Committee
00:33and Médecins Sans Frontières. The announcement by the Ministry of Diaspora Affairs comes amid
00:39fierce storms that in recent days have destroyed thousands of tents in Gaza exacerbating an already
00:44acute humanitarian crisis.
