In order to support Palestine’s efforts to combat cybercrime, the European Union Police and Rule of Law Mission (EUPOL COPPS) delivered a training for 6 Palestinian judges on 15 February 2020 on the risks posed by cryptocurrencies and the dark net. The objective was to provide a comprehensive overview of the ways criminals use new technologies to avoid being noticed by law enforcement authorities.

The training was delivered in cooperation with the Palestinian Judicial Institute and requested by the participating judges themselves following previous EUPOL COPPS trainings on cybercrime.

EUPOL COPPS is the European Union Co-ordinating Office for Palestinian Police Support. The aim of the Mission is to contribute to the establishment of sustainable and effective policing arrangements and to advise Palestinian counterparts on criminal justice and rule of law related aspects under Palestinian ownership.
