Groups that provide aid to Gaza are increasingly having their bank accounts or payment systems shut down as financial institutions seek to avoid running afoul of sanctions regimes. Leaders of the targeted groups say they carefully vet their partners, and the U.S. Treasury last year reminded banks that providing humanitarian aid is permitted. But banks view these groups’ accounts as too small to justify the expense of due diligence to distinguish between legitimate actors and sanctions-evaders, a lawyer with a Palestinian rights group in Europe said.

A major donor to Britain’s National Gallery has gotten the last word in a dispute over the building’s design, even though he died in 2022. Workers demolishing the museum’s Sainsbury wing ahead of a reconstruction found tucked inside a false column a note from John Sainsbury, a supermarket magnate whose family reportedly donated millions to build the wing decades ago. “Let it be known that one of the donors of this building is absolutely delighted that your generation has decided to dispense with the unnecessary columns,” wrote Sainsbury, who lost the argument over the column during construction of the wing when then-director Neil MacGregor ruled in the architects’ favor.
