| US freezes visas for Palestinians |
| 2001-09-23 |
The US government has frozen entry visas for Palestinians trying to enter the US. Dozens of Palestinians waiting for entry visas to the US were told by American officials their requests were being delayed for the time being until American security agencies examined each request, Palestinian sources told the Palestinian Gaza daily, Al-Hayat al-Jadida. The article said the UN was also holding up similar visa requests by Palestinian officials planning to travel to the states at the end of the month. |
