Netanyahu okays transfer of NIS 400m. tax revenues to PA

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu decided Tuesday evening to transfer to the Palestinian Authority some NIS 400 million Israel collected last month in tax revenue for the PA but withheld in response to the Palestinian statehood upgrade move at the UN in November.
A source in Netanyahu's bureau said the decision was for a one-time transfer,  and was due to the economic hardships facing the PA.
