Human rights in the Occupied Palestinian Territory
Living in Fear: Daily Abuses and Intimidation in the South Hebron Hills

The Palestinian communities in the South Hebron Hills live in a constant state of fear. At this parallel event, the speakers will analyze the major legal implications of the systematic, silent, and underhanded violations of the Israeli authorities and settlers against Palestinian communities in the area as well as in the entire oPt.
Victims of these abuses will share their precious testimonies and will speak about the birth and growth of nonviolent resistance movements of young Palestinians standing up against the military occupation of Palestine
