UN experts to Israel: End human rights abuses and institutionalised discrimination

(31. Oktober) A UN panel of independent experts in Geneva has urged Israel to end a host of practices violating Palestinian human rights.

The UN Human Rights Committee, which monitors implementation of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR) by its State parties, published its concluding observations Thursday following a review of Israel‘s human rights record earlier this month.
