#Settlements

A welcome move. A sign of increasing international frustration with Israel’s current government. The settlements have become a real bone of contention even for countries traditionally highly supportive of Israel. 👇 #Israel #Settlements #InternationalRelations #IL #US

Internal migration leaves Kazakhstan villages empty — Its population dropping from 10,000 people to just 216, the village of Zaozerny is one of hundreds of rural settlements in Kazakhstan hollowed out by waves of migration to the country’s ever-expanding cities #Kazakhstan #InternalMigration #RuralDepopulation #KZ

My appeal to the member countries of the Security Council: Summon the spirit of compromise that is essential to peace. Keep the channels of dialogue open. And spare no effort in the pursuit of peaceful settlements of disputes — a founding principle of the @UN. https://t.co/DZS9x6dpTI #Peace #Dialogue #SecurityCouncil #UN

Today marks an important step as the Israeli Settlements Bill completed its passage through the Oireachtas.

On the Middle East, the EU has for too long not acted on trade with the illegal Israeli settlements. We risk our 🇪🇺 credibility.

Today's EU Foreign Affairs Council has one job: ban trade with Israeli settlements. Hit or miss moment. #EU #Israel #TradeBan #EU #IL

The government shamefully votes against including services in a ban on trade with the Israeli settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. They have gutted the Occupied Territories Bill to please Trump and US corporations. We need complete sanctions on Israel. https://t.co/K2sLCcjUNB #SanctionsOnIsrael #OccupiedTerritories #EndIsraeliSettlements #IL #PS #US

Palestinians in East Jerusalem express deep anger over the recent surge in Israeli demolitions of their homes, particularly in the al-Bustan area of Silwan, as families like the Awads are left devastated and feeling that their future has been obliterated amid plans to convert the area into a park linked to Jewish settlements, amidst ongoing international neglect and legal challenges to their housing. #EastJerusalem #PalestinianRights #ForcedEvictions

'They destroyed the future': Palestinian anger at rise in Israeli demolitions in East Jerusalem

There are alarming reports of settler violence coming from the occupied West Bank: the demolition of homes, relentless expansion of illegal Israeli settlements, ongoing displacement of Palestinians, the threat of an attempted annexation that would – like the decades-long #WestBank #Palestine #IsraeliSettlements #IL #PS

This week in the Sunday Business Post, I explained why Ireland’s proposed ban on goods from illegal Israeli settlements is legally robust, consistent with international law & an important step in supporting peace, accountability and a viable two-state solution. #Ireland #IsraeliSettlements #InternationalLaw #IE #IL

Alongside @weizman_eyal, I won't participate in the #HayFestival because of @Airbnb being their main sponsor. Profiting from illegal settlements, advertising properties built on stolen land makes Airbnb not ''just a sponsor''. We must stop normalising Apartheid with a click! https://t.co/uYjJfAHg5B #BoycottAirbnb #Apartheid #HayFestival #IL

Illegal settlements are a breach of international law. Europe’s trade policy must be consistent with its legal and moral obligations. #InternationalLaw #TradePolicy #HumanRights #EU

Today at the Trade Foreign Affairs Council, I’m calling for an EU-level ban on trade with illegal settlements. We must send a strong signal that this behaviour is unacceptable and must stop. #TradeBan #IllegalSettlements #EUForeignPolicy #EU

Housing is a human right, and fundamental for human dignity. Yet nearly three billion people live in inadequate housing, often in informal settlements and slums. We must put housing at the centre of sustainable development — leaving no one behind. #HousingForAll #HumanRights #SustainableDevelopment #Therearenospecificcountrycodesmentionedinthetweetprovided.
