Submission to the Universal Periodic Review – Israel Human Right Council UPR Working Group 29th Session, January 2018 50 Years of Forcible Transfer of Palestinians from Occupied East Jerusalem
This report, submitted by Community Action Center (Al-Quds University), Al-Haq, the Society of St. Yves, and the Cairo Institute for Human Rights Studies, focuses on human rights violations in occupied East Jerusalem. Key issues include forcible transfer, internal displacement, collective punishment, and discriminatory policies such as residency revocation and restricted family unification for Palestinians. The Israeli government's policies, including home demolitions, settlement expansion, and punitive measures against families, violate international law. The report calls for the cessation of these practices, including the immediate reinstatement of revoked residencies, and the cessation of collective punishment and forced displacement.
