Summary

Israeli violations of international law and humanitarian law in the OPT continued during the reporting period (31 May – 06 June 2012):

Shooting:

During the reporting period, IOF killed 3 members of the Palestinian resistance and wounded 3 others in the Gaza Strip.  They also wounded 10 civilians, including 7 children.  In the West Bank, 10 Palestinian civilians were wounded when IOF used force to disperse peaceful demonstrations.  An 10thcivilian was seriously wounded by IOF in Hebron. 

In the Gaza Strip, on 01 June 2012, IOF killed a member of the Palestinian resistance during an armed clash to the east of Khan Yunis.  They also killed another two members of the Palestinian resistance by an air strike that targeted a motorcycle. 

During the reporting period, Israeli warplanes launched 10 air strikes against the Gaza Strip, during which they fired at least 19 missiles.  As a result, of these air strikes, a number of animal and bird farms, a factory of dairy products, a workshop, a well, 3 agricultural rooms and a greenhouse were destroyed, and 8 houses and a company were damaged.  Ten Palestinian civilians, including 7 children, were also lightly injured. 

During the reporting period, Israeli gunboats attacked opened fire at Palestinian fishing boats in the northern and central Gaza Strip.  Israeli naval troop arrested 3 Palestinian fishers, including a child, and confiscated 3 fishing boats. 

In the West Bank, during the reporting period, IOF wounded 9 demonstrators, including two children, during the dispersion of peaceful demonstrations organized in protest to the construction of the annexation wall and settlement activities in the West Bank, in solidarity with Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails and on the 45thanniversary of the beginning of the Israeli occupation.  Dozens of demonstrators also suffered from tear gas inhalation. 

On 04 June 2012, IOF seriously wounded a Palestinian civilian in Hebron, claiming that he stabbed an Israeli soldier near the Ibrahimi Mosque.

Incursions:

During the reporting period, IOF conducted at least 74 military incursions into Palestinian communities in the West Bank.  During these incursions, IOF arrested 25 Palestinian civilians, including a child and a journalist.  This number includes 4 Palestinian farmers who attempted to stop an attack by Israeli settlers on a Palestinian shepherd. 

Restrictions on Movement:

Israel had continued to impose a tightened siege on the OPT and imposed severe restrictions on the movement of Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, including occupied East Jerusalem.

The illegal Israeli-imposed closure of the Gaza Strip, which has steadily tightened since June 2007, has had a disastrous impact on the humanitarian and economic situation in the Gaza Strip. The illegal closure has caused not only a humanitarian crisis but a crisis of human rights and human dignity for the population of the Gaza Strip.  Measures declared recently to ease the blockade are vague, purely cosmetic and fail to deal with the root causes of the crisis, which can only be addressed by an immediate and complete lifting of the closure, including lifting the travel ban into and out of the Gaza Strip and the ban on exports. Palestinians in Gaza may no longer suffer from the same shortage of goods, but they will remain economically dependent and unable to care for themselves, and socially, culturally and academically isolated from the rest of the world.

IOF have continued to impose severe restrictions on the movement of Palestinian civilians throughout the West Bank, including occupied East Jerusalem. Thousands of Palestinian civilians from the West Bank and the Gaza Strip continue to be denied access to Jerusalem.

Settlement Activities:  

Israel has continued its settlement activities in the OPT in violation of international humanitarian law, and Israeli settlers have continued to attack Palestinian civilians and property.

On 31 May 2012, a number of Israeli settlers from “Yakir” settlement, northwest of Salfit, razed areas of land in Wadi Qana area to the west of Deir Estia village, and transported the sand to the above settlement. 

On 01 June 2012, a number of Israeli settlers from “Eddi Aad” settlement in the east of Turmos’iya village, north of Ramallah, uprooted 75 almond trees.

On 02 June 2012, a number of Israeli settlers from “Avihal” settlement, south of Hebron, uprooted 65 olive trees in Yatta village. 

On 05 June 2012, IOF moved into al-Maita area near Wadi al-Maleh village in the northern Jordan village, northeast of Tubas.  They handed notices to 5 Palestinian families in the area to remove their tents.  Later, IOF, accompanied by a bulldozer, arrived at the area again and tore down the 12 tents, and 6 animal farms:

On the same day, a number of Israeli settlers from “Sham’a” settlement, south of Hebron, set fire to Palestinian agricultural areas planted with wheat and parleys in al-Zahiriya village.  At least 20 dunums of agricultural land were burnt.

On the same day, 4 Israeli settlers from “Eitamar” settlement, which stands on the lands of Beit Fourik village, east of Nablus, attacked a Palestinian shepherd when he was grazing animals.  Immediately, a number of Palestinian farmers intervened and the two parties clashed.  Soon after, a guard of the above settlement arrived at the area and fired into the air.  IOF then arrived at the area and arrested the shepherd and 3 farmers.

Gaza Strip

Israel has continuously closed all border crossings to the Gaza Strip for nearly 5 years. The illegal Israeli-imposed closure of the Gaza Strip, which has steadily tightened since June 2007, has had a disastrous impact on the humanitarian and economic situation in the Gaza Strip.  

IOF have tightened the closure of the Gaza Strip and practically made Karm Abu Salem crossing as the sole commercial crossing of the Gaza Strip although it is not proper for commercial purposes in terms of its distance and operational capacity.

IOF have continued to apply their policy aimed at tightening the strangulation of the commercial movement in the Gaza Strip, including imposing total control over the flow of imports and exports.

The total closure of al-Mentar "Karni" crossing on 02 March 2011 has created a bitter situation that has seriously affected the Gaza Strip.  Following this closure, all the economic and commercial establishments in Gaza Commercial Zone were shut off.  It should be noted that al-Mentar crossing is the biggest crossing in the Gaza Strip in terms of its operational capacity to absorb the flow of imports and exports.  The decision of al-Mentar crossing was the culmination of a series of decisions to totally close Sofa crossing, east of the Gaza Strip, in the beginning of 2009, and Nahal Oz crossing, east of Gaza City, which was dedicated for the delivery of fuel and cooking gas to the Gaza Strip, in the beginning of 2010.

IOF have continued to impose total ban on the delivery of raw materials to the Gaza Strip, except for very limited items and quantities.  The limited quantities of raw materials allowed into Gaza do not meet the minimal needs of the civilian population in the Gaza Strip.

The cooking gas crisis which has erupted last November has continued to affect the Gaza Strip.  This crisis was created when the Israeli occupation authorities totally closed, on 04 January 2010, Nahal Oz crossing, which used to be dedicated for the delivery of fuel and cooking gas supplies to Gaza, and shifted fuel and cooking gas supplies to Karm Abu Salem crossing which is not technically equipped to receive Gaza's needs of fuel.  Karm Abu Salem crossing, with its maximum absorptive capacity, can receive only 200 tons of cooking gas per day.

Approximately 80% of Gaza civilians have continued to depend on alimentary aid provided by UNRWA and other relief agencies, rates of families who are living below poverty line have continued to be on the rise and approximately 40% of Gaza's manpower has continued to suffer from permanent unemployment as a result of shutting down the majority of Gaza's economic establishments.

IOF have continued to impose a total ban on the exportation of Gaza's products, especially industrial products, leading to undermining any real chances to rerun economic establishments.  The situation has been aggravated especially after making Karm Abu Salem crossing as Gaza sole commercial crossing and the repeated closure of this crossing which negatively affected the quantity of Gazan products which were allowed to be exported during last April.

For approximately five consecutive years, IOF have continued to ban the delivery of construction materials to Gaza. During the reporting period, IOF approved the delivery of limited quantities of construction materials for a number of international organizations.

Israel has continued to close Beit Hanoun (Erez) crossing for Palestinian civilians from the Gaza Strip.  IOF only allow the movement of limited groups amidst severe restrictions, including long hours of waiting in the majority of cases.  IOF have also continued to adopt a policy aimed at reducing the number of Palestinian patients allowed to move via Beit Hanoun crossing to receive medical treatment in hospitals in Israel or in the West Bank and Jerusalem.  IOF denied new categories of Gazan patient permission to have access to hospitals via the crossing.

Israel has imposed additional access restrictions on traders, international diplomats, journalists and humanitarian workers seeking to enter the Gaza Strip. 

For approximately 60 months, IOF have continued to deny approximately 700 Palestinian prisoners from Gaza detained in Israeli jails their visitation rights without providing any justification to this measure, which violates the rules of the international humanitarian law.

The West Bank

Israel has imposed a tightened closure on the West Bank. During the reporting period, IOF imposed additional restrictions on the movement of Palestinian civilians.

There are approximately hundreds of permanent roadblocks, and manned and unmanned checkpoints across the West Bank.

When complete, the illegal annexation wall will stretch for 724 kilometers around the West Bank, further isolating the entire population. 350 kilometers of the wall have already been constructed. Approximately 99% of the wall has been constructed inside the West Bank itself, confiscating more Palestinian land.

Many of the main roads that lead to Palestinian communities in the West Bank are closed or fully controlled by IOF.

IOF have continued to restrict access of Palestinian civilians from the West Bank to East Jerusalem, through a strict system of permits and a network of checkpoints.

IOF have completed controlled access to the Jordan Valley through 4 permanent checkpoints established at its entrances.  Palestinians living outside the area are not allowed to enter it without permits.

Settlement activities and expansion of settlements impose additional restrictions on the movement of Palestinian civilians. 

IOF have continued to restrict access to gunfire areas and natural reserves, which constitute about 26% of the total area of the West Bank.

Israeli military checkpoints restrict the movement of goods throughout the West Bank.

Palestinian civilians continue to be harassed by IOF in Jerusalem, and across the West Bank, including being regularly stopped, searched and even arrested in the streets by IOF.

4. Settlement Activities and Attacks by Settlers against Palestinian Civilians and Property

Israel has continued its settlement activities in the OPT in violation of international humanitarian law, and Israeli settlers have continued to attack Palestinian civilians and property.

At approximately 15:00 on Thursday, 31 May 2012, a number of Israeli settlers from “Yakir” settlement, northwest of Salfit, razed areas of land belonging to al-Makhalfa family in Wadi Qana area to the west of Deir Estia village, and transported the sand to the above settlement. 

On Friday evening, 01 June 2012, a number of Israeli settlers from “Eddi Aad” settlement in the east of Turmos’iya village, north of Ramallah, uprooted 75 almond trees belonging to Mohammed Sadiq ‘Awad.

On Saturday, 02 June 2012, a number of Israeli settlers from “Avihal” settlement, south of Hebron, uprooted 65 olive trees belonging to the al-Jabarin and ‘Eissa families in Yatta village. 

At approximately 06:30 on Tuesday, 05 June 2012, IOF moved into al-Maita area near Wadi al-Maleh village in the northern Jordan village, northeast of Tubas.  They handed notices to 5 Palestinian families in the area to remove their tents.  At approximately 09:30, IOF, accompanied by a bulldozer, arrived at the area again and tore down the tents:

1. Three tents and a 200-square-meter animal farm belonging to ‘Ali Hassan al-Faqir;

Recommendations to the International Community


1. PCHR calls upon the High Contracting Parties to the Fourth Geneva Convention to fulfill their legal and moral obligations under Article 1 of the Convention to ensure Israel's respect for the Convention in the Occupied Palestinian Territory.  PCHR believes that the conspiracy of silence practiced by the international community has encouraged Israel to act as if it is above the law and encourages Israel continue to violate international human rights and humanitarian law.

2. PCHR calls upon the High Contracting Parties to the Fourth Geneva Convention to convene a conference to take effective steps to ensure Israel's respect of the Convention in the OPT and to provide immediate protection for Palestinian civilians.

3. PCHR calls upon the High Contracting Parties to the Fourth Geneva Convention to comply with their legal obligations detailed in Article 146 of the Convention to search for and prosecute those responsible for grave breaches, namely war crimes.

4. PCHR calls for the immediate implementation of the Advisory Opinion issued by the International Court of Justice, which considers the construction of the Annexation Wall inside the West Bank illegal.

5. PCHR recommends that international civil society organizations, including human rights organizations, bar associations and NGOs, participate in the process of exposing those accused of grave breaches of international law and urge their governments to bring the perpetrators to justice.

6. PCHR calls upon the European Union to activate Article 2 of the Euro-Israel Association Agreement, which provides that Israel must respect human rights as a precondition for economic cooperation between the EU states and Israel.  PCHR further calls upon the EU states to prohibit import of goods produced in illegal Israeli settlements in the OPT.

7. PCHR calls on the international community to recognize the Gaza disengagement plan, which was implemented in September 2005, for what it is - not an end to occupation but a compounding of the occupation and the humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip. 

8. In recognition of ICRC as the guardian of the Fourth Geneva Convention, PCHR calls upon the ICRC to increase its staff and activities in the OPT, including the facilitation of family visitations to Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails.

9. PCHR appreciates the efforts of international civil society, including human rights organizations, bar associations, unions and NGOs, and urges them to continue their role in pressuring their governments to secure Israel's respect for human rights in the OPT and to demand Israel end its attacks on Palestinian civilians.

10. PCHR calls upon the international community to pressure Israel to lift the severe restrictions imposed by the Israeli government and its occupation forces on access for international organizations to the OPT.

11. PCHR reiterates that any political settlement not based on international human rights law and humanitarian law cannot lead to a peaceful and just solution of the Palestinian question.  Rather, such an arrangement can only lead to further suffering and instability in the region.  Any peace process or agreement must be based on respect for international law, including international human rights and humanitarian law.
