Israel's Citizenship Revocation Law Targets Palestinians

Netanyahu revokes citizenship of two Palestinians, planning deportation.
2023 law allows revocation for breaches of loyalty, including terror acts.
Payments from Palestinian Authority justify revocation under the law.
Mohamad Hamad, 48, east Jerusalem citizen, convicted in 2002, served over 20 years.
Other man released in 2024 after 23 years.
Rights groups call the decision discriminatory against Palestinian citizens (20% of Israel's population).
If court upholds revocations, Israel joins few nations stripping citizenship of their own citizens.
