    Israeli ban and allegations of Hamas representation

    Israel banned CEPR in December 2013 and classified it as an illicit association, alleging that it served as Hamas’s representative in Europe. CEPR director Arafat Shoukri denied political-party affiliation and said the organization would challenge the decision legally. The designation also raised concerns about the potential arrest or prosecution of associated European parliamentarians entering Israel.
