It has recently come to our attention that an organisation calling itself the „Friends of Palestine Association“ has been claiming to have donated money to and been in communication with the Palestinian BDS National Committee (BNC). This is totally false. The BNC has never heard of this organisation nor has it ever accepted any donations from it.

The Friends of Palestine Association has been approaching a number of organisations that support BDS, lying to them about its alleged relations with the BNC.

Given that the Friends of Palestine Association has fabricated having a relationship with the BNC, and also given that organisations that have been in touch with Friends of Palestine Association have raised serious concerns about the organisation’s credibility, the BNC encourages Palestinian and Palestine solidarity organisations to avoid contact with the Friends of Palestine Association.
