Michael Lynk, the UN special rapporteur for the situation in Palestine, on Friday raised concern about the lack of human rights accountability for Israeli violations in Palestine, warning that such situation encourage further territorial annexation.
Lynk's remarks came in Amman of Jordan following his week-long visit, where he met with Palestinian and Israeli human rights organizations after he was denied entry to Palestine by the Israeli occupation authority.
”The United Nations has stated on numerous occasions that the Israeli settlements are illegal, its annexation of east Jerusalem is unlawful, and its violations of the human rights of the Palestinians breach international covenants and treaties," he said, adding Israel's refusal of his entry was against its obligations as a UN member.
“Now is the time for the international community to hold Israel fully accountable for its actions, and to determine whether Israel’s role as the occupying power has crossed the bright red line into illegality.”
