Israeli Occupation Authorities Denies Entry of UN Special Rapporteur for the Occupied Palestinian Territories
PCHR strongly condemns the decision taken by Israeli occupation authorities to prevent Professor Richard Falk, the UN Special Rapporteur for the Occupied Palestinian Territories (OPT), from entering the OPT on Sunday, 14 December 2008, and departing him from Ben Gurion Airport on Monday morning. PCHR calls upon the international community, including the UN Secretary-General, to denounce the position taken by Israeli occupation authorities, to stop dealing with Israel as a state above law, and to immediately take necessary steps than can ensure Israel’s compliance to international humanitarian law and human rights law.
