Summary of Legal Proceedings with Which Yesh Din Assisted, 2006-2016 Photo by Eddie Gerald/Getty Images
Summary of legal proceedings with which Yesh Din assisted, 2006-2016 Eddie Gerald/Getty Images Photo by Position Paper, September 2016 Yesh Din Volunteers for Human Rights A. BACKGROUND One of the key aspects of Israel’s control over the West Bank is its effort towards the control of land. This effort takes place mostly in Area C, which is under full Israeli control, and it is partly manifested in the thriving settlement enterprise which Israel has established in this area. According to international humanitarian law, the establishment of Israeli communities inside the OPT– settlements and outposts alike – is forbidden. Yet, despite this prohibition, Israel began building settlements in the West Bank almost immediately following its occupation of the area. Over the years of occupation, successive Israeli governments have initiated, approved, planned and funded settlements in the West Bank, and have instituted a system of benefits and financial incentives to encourage Israeli citizens to relocate to these settlements. Twenty- four local and regional Israeli councils are currently active in the West Bank. These councils govern 126 settlements, where approximately 385,900 Israeli citizens live.1 In the 1990s, as a result of international pressure and obligations, the official building of new settlements stopped. At the same time, in order to sustain the West Bank settlement enterprise, beginning in the mid-1990s, settlements began being established without official support from the State of Israel, but with help and involvement (both directly and indirectly) from public bodies and authorities representing the State. These settlements were referred to as “unauthorized outposts”.2 There are currently 100 unauthorized outposts in the West Bank, all in Area C, with an estimated population of 10,000.3 Eighty of the unauthorized outposts were either partially or completely built on privately owned Palestinian land.4 The jurisdiction areas of many settlements are much larger than the area they actually use.
