United Nations: "The Commission on Human Rights this morning adopted by roll-call vote three resolutions on human rights in the occupied Syrian Golan, Israeli settlements in the occupied Arab territories, and the violation of human rights in the occupied Arab territories, including Palestine.
On the question of the violation of human rights in the occupied Arab territories, including Palestine, adopted by a roll-call vote of 31 in favour, seven against, with 15 abstentions, the Commission reaffirmed the legitimate right of the Palestinian people to resist the Israeli occupation and strongly condemned human rights violations of the Israeli occupation authorities in the occupied Palestinian territory, including East Jerusalem. The Commission also strongly condemned the Israeli occupation of the territories as being an aggression, an offence against humanity and a flagrant violation of human rights. It strongly condemned the construction of the Israeli wall in the occupied Palestinian territory."
