What were the conditions under which they adopted violence as a strategy? Did October 7 go as planned, or was there a miscalculation?

Press Releases
Press release
After more than 16 months of engagement, we welcome the FDFA’s decision to correct its public communications and remove any implication that the Swiss government ended its contract with Al-Shabaka as part of its 2023 investigation. As a result, the FDFA has quietly amended its statements, removing all references to Al-Shabaka from the list of organizations it had previously claimed were subject to contract termination.
