Occupied Palestinian Territories. Published every Thursday, the Weekly Reports

Closure Reports |
PCHR has published a
series of reports on the effects of Israel’s draconian closure policy on the
Gaza Strip since 1996, at an accelerated pace since the tightening of the
closure in October 2000. The closures constitute a form of collective punishment
and therefore violate international law. They have a disruptive and devastating
impact on the Palestinian economy as well as on everyday life.

reports.

Silencing the Press |
Targeting Palestinian and
international journalists has become a disturbing trend in the activities of
Israeli occupying forces. Given the importance of the media in highlighting the
suffering of the Palestinian people and exposing abuses committed by Israeli
occupying forces, it is imperative to preserve the freedom of the press.

Assassinations |
A prominent feature of
Israeli policy in the OPT is tracking down and assassinating both militants and
political leaders. These extra-judicial executions violate international law
have been universally condemned.
