Hamas-Israel war: Israeli settlements in the Palestinian territories constitute “a war crime”, according to the UN. “Settler violence and violations linked to settlements have reached shocking new levels and risk eliminating any practical possibility of establishing a viable Palestinian state,” the report says.
‘Reports released this week that Israel plans to build 3,476 additional homes for settlers in Maale Adoumim, Efrat and Kedar go against international law,’ says Volker Türk, the High Commissioner for Human Rights.
