The Registrar of Associations in Israel's Ministry of Justice has revoked the 2026 operating permit for the "Dar Al-Huda Al-Namudhajia" association, which runs educational institutions in East Jerusalem. The decision by the Corporations Authority was based on the association's "lack of cooperation with a supervision process," according to an authority statement. The authority stated that the organization "did not comply with demands to transfer information and documents" from its intelligence and investigation unit. It further clarified that full cooperation with supervision procedures, including providing required information, is a fundamental condition for obtaining and maintaining an operating permit.
The revocation follows a series of investigative reports published by "HaKol HaYehudi" (The Jewish Voice) website, which alleged that the association, previously known as "Amsach Dam'at Al-Yatim," is an affiliate of Hamas in Jerusalem. However, the Corporations Authority's statement did not address these specific allegations, attributing the permit's denial solely to the lack of cooperation with the oversight process. The association's response to these claims was not included in the materials provided to the authority.
