The cellular companies and Dor Energy are not included on the list.
The Palestinian Authority (PA) has declared war on Israeli food products and cigarette marketers. A list of Israeli companies whose products will be boycotted and banned from sale is now being distributed to the public in the PA territory.
“Globes” has learned the companies listed on the boycott include Tnuva, Elite, Osem, Strauss, Telma and cigarette brands marketed in Israel, including all the products that have alternatives made by Palestinian manufacturers.
The list is being distributed as part of the PA’s boycott of Israeli manufacturers. It should be noted that neither beverage companies or Israeli cellular telephone companies operating in the PA territories are included on the list. Nor is Dor Energy.
Israeli consumer products manufacturers refused to comment on the boycott or on the scale of damage to sales resulting therefrom, stating that it was a political matter.
