Israel has revoked the entry permits of a group of American Jewish activists who participated in protests in the occupied West Bank against attacks by Israeli occupiers on Palestinians and their property, The Forward, a US Jewish publication, reported Friday.
Activist Sam Sherman told the newspaper that he received an email canceling his travel permit while taking part in a seven-week volunteer program in the occupied West Bank’s Masafer Yatta area, where he was supporting Palestinians.
Israeli authorities did not provide an explanation for canceling the travel permits of the American Jewish activists.
Israeli occupiers have carried out numerous attacks against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, according to Palestinian officials.
Official Palestinian figures show that occupiers carried out 3,488 attacks against Palestinians and their property during the first six months of 2026.
