Israeli bodies in occupied Palestine do not respect their own rules: Israeli official
A top Israeli official says Israeli bodies operating in the occupied Palestinian territories have failed to heed even their own rules. - In his annual report, comptroller Yosef Shapira said on Wednesday that this is because of a culture of impunity. Shapira focused on the expansion of Israeli settlements in his report, saying there is no authority in the West Bank to respect the rule of law. Shapira added that the settlement projects are rapidly expanding without any permission. Anti-settlement group Peace Now reacted to the report, calling the situation in the West Bank “intolerable.”
