In its new report, it says that Israel has policy “to retain the domination of Jewish Israelites against Palestinians”, including Palestinians who are Israelite subjects.
Apartheid constitutes racial discrimination enabled by the state and is considered a crime against humanity, writes the BBC, translates Periscope.
The Israeli foreign minister has denied the report, calling it <x0 mulberry and fake”.
He accused the Human Rights Watch organisation of having “an anti-Israel agenda was a long time”.
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas welcomed the report in question.
Arab Minority in Israel constitutes over 20 percent of its population of 9.3 million, while at least 2.5 million Palestinians live in the occupied Israeli territories of the West Coast, and 350 thousand in East Jerusalem.
Israel had occupied these territories in the Middle East war in 1967. He withdrew from Gaza in 2005, but still maintains control over most of its borders, like airspace and water.
We remember that Kosovo has established its embassy in Jerusalem, becoming only the third state to do so, after Guatemala and the United States of America. /Periscope
