AMMAN — Palestine Liberation Organisation (PLO) Executive Committee member Tayseer Khaled has called on the US to revoke financial support for Jewish terrorist organisations which have been active in the Israeli settlements in the occupied West Bank.

In a PLO statement released Wednesday, Khaled said these organisations receive support from more than 50 US organisations.

He added that these groups have carried out more than 40 crimes against the Palestinian people, their possessions and against holy sites since the 1970s.

The PLO official added that there is no logic in the US administration prosecuting institutions that provide financial support to terror organisations in the region such Daesh while ignoring individuals and organistations that support Jewish terror groups in the occupied West Bank.
