As Israel began its vaccine rollout late last year, some activists and foreign media outlets criticized Israel for not including the Palestinians, arguing that under international law, Israel is the “occupying power” and must vaccinate them.
Israel,
has pointed out that the internationally recognized Oslo Accords state
that the PA is responsible for its population’s healthcare, including
vaccinations.
Regardless
of legal matters, the government has already sent thousands of doses of
coronavirus vaccines to the PA and facilitated the entry of Russian
donations of the Sputnik V vaccines.
