Israel: Palestine
- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the number of Palestinian children currently held in administrative detention without charge or trial by Israeli authorities, according to the most recent official data.
- Answer
-
Throughout the conflict, the UK regularly raised our concerns about Palestinian children in detention with the Israeli authorities. We continue to call on Israel to immediately facilitate urgent, unhindered access to all child detainees from the West Bank and Gaza to persons providing legal assistance, the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and appropriate experts for the purposes of monitoring and reporting.
