Israel said Thursday it had suspended entry permits for 83,000 Palestinians during the holy month of Ramadan following a shooting in Tel Aviv that killed four people.
It said that 83,000 Palestinians would be affected, adding that 200 residents of Gaza who had received permits to visit relatives during Ramadan would also have access frozen.
"All permits for Ramadan, especially permits for family visits from Judea and Samaria to Israel, are frozen," said a statement from COGAT, the unit which manages civilian affairs in the occupied West Bank.

COGAT announced the measures after two Palestinians opened fire at a popular Tel Aviv nightspot near Israel's military headquarters late Wednesday, killing four people in one of the worst attacks in a months-long wave of violence.
