Israel has blocked a private Canadian delegation, which included six members of Parliament, from entering the occupied West Bank. The Israeli government cited the delegation's association with The Canadian-Muslim Vote, a group it claims is funded by an organization it designates as a terror entity. Members of the delegation reported being physically confronted by Israeli border officials at the Allenby crossing, with one lawmaker stating she was shoved while attempting to assist a fellow delegate. The group had planned to meet with displaced Palestinians and discuss recent developments, including Israel's approval of new housing in Jewish settlements. The incident has prompted objections from Canadian officials and raised concerns among Canadian Muslim organizations about transparency and accountability in Israel's border policies.
