Germany defunds 2 Israeli human rights groups DW 01/05/2025
Briefly

"Kurve Wustrow has partners in several countries, including Sudan and Myanmar. But Preuss said this was the first time ever the German government had defunded any of their ongoing projects."
"The German authorities never gave the organization an official explanation as to why they had suddenly decided to rescind the funding for projects they had approved or renewed just the year before."
"Since the Hamas terror attacks on October 7, 2023, politicians in Germany have repeatedly emphasized that Israel's security is of utmost importance, reflecting a shift in funding policy."
"The findings indicate that the defunding of Zochrot and New Profile are part of a larger pattern of cutting federal funds for human rights organizations that have been critical of Israel."
