Al-Haq

As it reads on Wikipedia · 1 finding marked in the text · see twenty years of this article's openings

Al-Haq (Arabic: الحق, romanized: al-Ḥaqq; transl. "the Truth" or "the Right") is a Palestinian non-governmental human rights organization based in the city of Ramallah in the West Bank. Founded in 1979, Al-Haq monitors and documents human rights violations committed by parties to the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, issuing reports on its findings and producing detailed legal studies. It is in special consultative status with the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) since 2000. Al-Haq has been affiliated with the Geneva-based International Commission of Jurists and is a member of the International Federation for Human Rights, Habitat International Coalition and the World Organisation Against Torture. It also is part of EuroMed Rights' Executive Committee and the Steering Committee of the Palestinian NGOs Network.

What the highlighted wording does
1
㉓ Reviewed in the sweep
Al-Haq is the Ramallah-based Palestinian human rights organization active since 1979. In 2020 the opening reported that Visa, Mastercard and American Express had withdrawn donation facilities from Al-Haq and three other NGOs in 2018 after being alerted the groups had 'links to a designated terrorist organisation.' Today the opening describes Al-Haq only as a group that 'monitors and documents human rights violations' and lists its institutional affiliations, with no mention of the terrorist-designation controversy, though terror survives 15 times elsewhere in the article. A reader today learns which international bodies Al-Haq is affiliated with, not that major credit card companies cut its donation processing over alleged links to a designated terrorist organization.
