Translation by "Jerusalem" dot com - Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich signed, on Thursday, a decision to deduct 100 million shekels, instead of 50, as a double deduction, from the Palestinian clearance funds.

In a statement issued by him, Smotrich said that this step is being taken for the first time, and that he signed the decision last night, and it will take effect from today, Thursday.

And he indicated that this money will be deducted instead of the money provided by the Palestinian Authority to the families of what he described as "terrorists," pointing out that 200 thousand shekels will be added to it, which will go as compensation to the families of those killed in operations, according to rulings issued by Israeli courts.

He accused the Palestinian Authority of working to "finance terrorism".
