Article Summary
An Al Jazeera report reveals a 2013 Israeli government spreadsheet that tracked over 150 humanitarian groups, marking some as 'critics of Israel' or linked to the BDS movement, raising concerns that the monitoring targeted organizations for political reasons rather than security. The document cites a pro-Israel watchdog, NGO Monitor, as a source, and critics say this reflects a pattern of suppressing groups supporting Palestinian rights. Oxfam and other charities reject the allegations, saying their work is humanitarian and lawful.
