Minister of Social Development Ahmed Majdalani announced that the allocations for poor families will be paid on Monday in all governorates.

Majdalani said in a press statement on Sunday that the ministry decided to disburse the payment despite the measures of "Hamas" to prevent the work of the committee charged with the ministry in Gaza.

He warned Hamas not to continue its procedures and impede the work of the ministry's legitimate employees, and said: "After the payment of the payment we will have concrete measures and steps if Hamas continue their policy and procedures."

He added: We will manage the cash transfer program and all programs directed to the southern governorates directly from the ministry's headquarters in Ramallah, and we will conduct a comprehensive review of all lists of beneficiaries to ensure justice, fairness, integrity and transparency in targeting, away from the politicization of aid practiced by Hamas.

It is noteworthy that this batch includes 105 thousand families, including about 70 thousand families in the Gaza Strip (66% of the beneficiaries), and 35 thousand families in the northern governorates (34%) of the beneficiaries.

The value of this payment is about NIS 125 million, of which NIS 94 million is for poor families in the Gaza Strip, or 75% of the total payment.
