The US and Canada announce that they are jointly sanctioning the anti-Israel Samidoun Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network.
The State Department describes Samidoun as “a sham charity that serves as an international fundraiser for the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) terrorist organization.”
“The PFLP uses Samidoun to maintain fundraising operations in both Europe and North America. We are also designating Khaled Barakat, a member of the PFLP’s leadership,” the State Department announcement adds.
