PASSIA Desk Diary PASSIA Desk Diary Every year since 1988, PASSIA has published its "Diary", which continues to follow its original aims and goals, i.e., to provide a comprehensive directory of contact information for relevant organizations operating in the West Bank and Gaza – listing names, addresses, main activities – combined with a full day-to-day planner (calendar) of the respective year and a comprehensive compilation of events and statistics related to Palestine and the Palestinians. The PASSIA Desk Diary is annually updated – entries are added, changed or removed and new addresses and information are included. PASSIA is very proud to say that its diary has become an invaluable source of information for many people, both locally and abroad, and as yet there is no equivalent publication in Palestine. Contents The 2005 edition of the PASSIA Desk Diary contains over 370 pages of updated and new addresses, a com- prehensive calendar, and information and statistics on relevant events and issues, as they became available throughout the year of 2004. The first section is the Directory, which contains details of Palestinian and international institutions oper- ating in the Palestinian Territories. The fact that it is annually updated as well as the comprehensiveness of the directory is unique and makes it an in- valuable resource for all those inter- ested in or working on the Palestine Question. Among the information provided one finds names of contact persons, phone and fax numbers, e- mail and mailing addresses, internet websites (where available), and a brief background for most organizations on their main fields of work. The directory also includes an index that facilitates the search for a certain entry. 111 Annual Report 2004 Directory entries in the 2005 edition included the following: PLO Bodies, Departments, and Representation Abroad Palestinian Authority (PA) Ministries and other Institutions, Commissions and Councils Palestinian Legislative Council (PLC) members and committees Police and Security (PA) Local Government (Governorates, Municipalities & Village Councils) Political Parties and Factions Academic and Research Centers Agriculture Associations & Unions Chambers of Commerce Charitable Organizations Cultural Centers Democracy, Peace & Community Development Centers Diplomatic Missions Education (Universities, Colleges, Schools, Training Centers, Educational Institutes, and Libraries) Environment & Water Financial & Development Institutions (Banks, Credit, Investment & Consulting Companies, Money Changers) Governmental Aid Missions Health (Hospitals, Clinics & Centers, Physicians, Pharmacies) Human Rights & Law (Human Rights Centers, Law Offices, Lawyers) International & UN Organizations Local and Foreign Media & Press NGOs Operating in Palestine Palestinian Organizations in Israel Religious Forums & Centers Services (Accountants, Advertisement, Print & Design, Bookshops & Stationary, Car Rentals, Computers, Couriers & Express Services, E-mail & Internet, Insurances, Management Consulting & Development, Planning & Engineering, Real Estate, Restaurants, Telecommunication & Office Equipment, Translation & Editing) Trade - Import/Export Travel and Tourism (Airlines, Hotels & Resorts, Hospices & Guesthouses, Travel Agencies & Tour Operators, Taxis & Transportation) 112 PASSIA Desk Diary 11 Women’s Organizations Youth Organizations and Sport Clubs The second section of the Diary 2005 includes standard features, such as a day-by- day planner, calendars for the previous and following years, address and note space, and anniversaries and national holidays of foreign countries. Each calendar page also includes a box providing details of international treaties, conventions, resolutions and so forth that relate to the Palestine Question. The third section of the Diary is the Agenda, a source of information and facts about Palestine and the Palestinians. The agenda begins with 14 chapters in which the following aspects of Palestinian society and the Palestine Question are described, supported by tables, statistics and suggestions for further research (reading material and website references): Dictionary of Palestinian Political Terms Geography Population Refugees Land & Settlements Water & Environment Economy (Agriculture, Industry & Private Sector, Labor & Employment, Tourism, Trade, Taxation, Finances) 113 Annual Report 2004 Education Health Infrastructure (Housing & Construction, Transport & Roads, Telecommunication, Electricity & Energy) Society & Living Conditions Government & Negotiations Jerusalem (facts & figures on the history, population, Israeli policies and practices, settlement, and housing, as well as a chronology of events in Jerusalem throughout 2004). The fourth and final part of the agenda comprises, a Palestine Chronology 2004, a full list of PASSIA publications, as well as a set of colored maps, illustrating historical and contemporary aspects of the Palestine- Israel conflict, including maps on Israel’s settlement policy and its the separation wall, the distribution of refugees and the situation in Jerusalem.

  • Israel/Palestine
    Global Coalition EDUCATION UNDER ATTACK GCPEA to Protect Education from Attack COUNTRY PROFILES ISRAEL/PALESTINE In the West Bank, military operations by Israeli security forces and attacks by Israeli settlers harmed Palestinian students, education personnel, schools, and universities. In Gaza, air strikes and mortar shells damaged or destroyed hundreds of Palestinian schools and universities, most of them in 2014. Several Israeli schools and buses transporting Israeli students were also damaged. Multiple parties used dozens of schools and universities as bases, for weapons storage, or for military training in the West Bank and Gaza. Context Conflict in Israel/Palestine varied by region from 2013 to 2017. Tension in the West Bank was largely related to Israeli settlements and administrative policies. Israeli authorities exercised exclusive jurisdiction over civil and security issues in Area C, which encompassed approximately 60 percent of the West Bank, and full jurisdiction over East Jerusalem. Is - raeli authorities rarely issued building permits for Palestinians in Area C and frequently demolished Palestinian property there, including schools. 1131 Furthermore, according to the human rights group Yesh Din, there was limited accountability for ideologically motivated crimes against Palestinians, such as physical violence, damage to property, or takeover of land. In 2016, Yesh Din found that 85 percent of the investigations into this type of crime were closed because of failed police investigations. 1132 Violence and tensions also arose in areas close to Israeli settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, and to checkpoints established and run by Israeli security forces (ISF). 1133 Violence intensified in the West Bank in June 2014, after two Israeli children and one Israeli youth were abducted and killed.

  • Settler Violence in the West Bank, Including East Jerusalem October 2013
    Update on Settler Violence in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem October 2013 This update is issued by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) as coordinator of the Protection Cluster in the occupied Palestinian territory. It has been jointly prepared by members of the Protection Cluster Working Group in the West Bank, including JLAC, MDM-France, NRC, OCHA, PU-AMI, UNICEF, UNRWA and Yesh Din, and also draws upon information from FAO and the Food Security Sector. Violence by Israeli settlers against Palestinians and the property in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, remains a key issue of protection concern for the humanitarian community. This ad hoc update provides an overview of ongoing protection concerns related to settler violence, highlighting in particular the lack of law enforcement and accountability by Israeli authorities. 1. Introduction and legal framework Violence by Israeli settlers against Palestinians and their property is directly linked to the existence and expansion of illegal Israeli settlements in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem. Since 1967, Israel has established an estimated 150 settlements in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, in addition to some 100 “outposts” erected by settlers in contravention of Israeli law.1 The expansion of settlements continues: during the first three months of 2013, the construction of 865 settlement housing units commenced in the West Bank, excluding East Jerusalem, marking a 355% increase compared to the last quarter of 2012.2 The estimated settler population in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem ranges between 500,000 and 650,000, and has almost tripled in the 20 years since the Oslo accords were signed in 1993.3 The establishment and expansion of Israeli settlements in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, violate Article 49 of the Fourth Geneva Convention, which prohibits the transfer of parts of the Occupying Power’s own civilian population into territory it occupies.

    United Nations A/ES-10/703–S/2015/907 General Assembly Distr.: General 25 November 2015 Security Council Original: English General Assembly Security Council Tenth emergency special session Seventieth year Agenda item 5 Illegal Israeli actions in Occupied East Jerusalem and the rest of the Occupied Palestinian Territory Identical letters dated 24 November 2015 from the Permanent Observer of the State of Palestine to the United Nations addressed to the Secretary-General, the President of the General Assembly and the President of the Security Council I write to draw your attention to the ongoing critical situation in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, and to the grave reality faced by the unprotected Palestinian civilian population as a direct result of the Israeli military occupation and the massive human rights violations being perpetrated against them by the occupying Power. We must highlight the deepening vulnerability of Palestinian children, as they continue to bear the brunt of increasingly oppressive, violent and illegal Israeli policies and practices. For nearly five decades, Palestinian children have suffered at the hands of the Israeli occupying forces and will tragically continue to suffer as long as Israel, the occupying Power, remains immune from any consequences of its blatant and systematic human rights violations and crimes. In this connection, we bring to your immediate attention that yesterday, 23 November, Israeli occupying forces killed three Palestinian children in cold blood in different parts of the occupied West Bank. We must also draw attention to the fact that, in addition to the killing and injury of children, the Israeli occupying forces also carried on with other illegal practices, such as the arbitrary arrest and detention of Palestinian children in the recent period.
