(NGO Monitor) On Oct. 22, 2021, Israel designated six Palestinian NGOs as terrorist entities due to their links to the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). The PFLP itself is designated as a terrorist organization by the U.S., EU, Israel, and Canada. Since then, critics have claimed they have not seen anything to justify the designations. The evidence presented in this report - compiled exclusively from open source materials - documents the ties these NGOs and their leadership have to the PFLP. Three NGO officials on trial for a bombing that killed an Israeli teenager have been claimed by the PFLP as members. Nine other NGO officials have been convicted for their involvement in planning or executing other terrorist attacks. 37 additional NGO officials are shown to be affiliated with the PFLP. In 2022, the Dutch government announced the results of an audit conducted by a Dutch firm that identified 34 individuals who held positions in one of the NGOs and the PFLP in 2007-2020.
