Seventeen international aid groups have petitioned Israel's Supreme Court to allow them to continue working in the Gaza Strip and other areas in the occupied Palestinian territory, where a work ban is set to take effect soon. The ban would prevent foreign nationals from entering the areas, affecting hundreds of workers employed by aid organizations. Aid groups argue that the ban would severely hinder their ability to deliver humanitarian services to those in need. The petitioning groups are seeking an exemption or clarification on the ban's implementation.
