An-Najah News - The government, employees will only receive 50 percent of the June salary according to the Ministry of Finance and Planning announcement
The statement said that employees whose salary is below 1750 shekels (about $510) will receive a full salary, while those of a higher salary will receive a minimum of 1750 shekels or half their salary, whichever is higher.
The crisis exacerbated due to decline in government revenues caused by the partial coronavirous lockdown of public and commercial life.
Also the Palestinian government has been in a financial crisis caused by Israel's failure to transfer about $500 million in monthly tax revenues it collects on behalf of the Palestinians, in the aftermath of the leadership's decision to halt coordination with the Israeli occupation.
