The Current Situation In The West Bank, Palestine
For anyone considering enrolling in this online course, the following article may provide insight into Palestine’s human rights situation. It summarizes a report from the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) from 2015. If anything, the situation probably deteriorated during the intervening period. According to the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), in a report released on 5 March 2015 and relating to the period of 26 May 2013 to 31 October 2014, it was noted that there were “widespread violations of international human rights law and international humanitarian law” in Palestine.
The pervasiveness of military occupation in the Occupied Palestinian Territories and East Jerusalem has meant that adherence to international law is limited, with the independent international NGO, Human Rights Watch, noting “severe and discriminatory restrictions on Palestinians’ human rights.”
