Israel is revoking the licenses of 37 aid groups working in Gaza and the occupied West Bank, citing failure to meet new registration requirements. The move has been criticized by foreign ministers from 10 countries, including the UK, who say it will severely impact access to essential services. The aid groups include well-known international non-governmental organizations (INGOs) such as ActionAid and the International Rescue Committee. Israel's Ministry of Diaspora Affairs claims the new measures won't impact humanitarian assistance, but critics argue the new registration system is 'restrictive' and 'unacceptable'.
