“The recent escalation of violence in Gaza, as well as forcible transfer of Palestinians through evictions, demolitions of homes, the expansion of settlements and settler violence also cry out for human rights-based solutions,” he added.
 He mentioned that Israel’s “cooperation with the Special Procedures and the Independent International Commission of Inquiry is almost non-existent” and for three years has “not granted visas to my international colleagues to monitor issues on the ground.”
He called on Israel to accept “key recommendations during its fourth UPR cycle will be the basis for renewed, constructive engagement with my Office and the UN human rights ecosystem.”
