Israel has denied entry to the West Bank for six Canadian MPs, as well as the remainder of a 30-person delegation led by a Canadian Muslim group.

The MPs were part of a group organized and sponsored by the non-profit The Canadian-Muslim Vote and accompanied by staff with the National Council of Canadian Muslims (NCCM) with the aim of meeting with displaced Palestinians and community members of various faiths.
