Calls upon Israel, the occupying Power:
(a)
To end without delay its occupation of the territories occupied since 1967, to
reverse and redress the settlement policy in the occupied territories, including East Jerusalem
and the Syrian Golan, to dismantle the settlement enterprise, including, as a first step, by
immediately stopping the establishment of new settlements and the expansion of existing
settlements, including so-called natural growth and related activities, and to discard any and
all plans to install settlers in the occupied territories, including in East Jerusalem;
(b)
To put an end to all of the human rights violations linked to the presence of
settlements, especially of the right to self-determination and non-discrimination and to fulfil
its international obligations to provide adequate, effective and prompt remedy and
reparations for victims;
(c)
To take immediate measures to prohibit and eradicate all policies and practices
that discriminate against and disproportionately affect the Palestinian population in the
Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, by, inter alia, putting an end to the
system of segregated roads for the exclusive use of Israeli settlers, who reside illegally in the
said territory, the complex combination of movement restrictions consisting of the wall,
roadblocks and a permit regime that only affects the Palestinian population, the application
of a two-tier legal system that has facilitated the establishment and consolidation of the
settlements and other violations and forms of institutionalized discrimination;

To cease the requisition and all other forms of unlawful appropriation of
Palestinian land, including so-called State land, and its allocation for the establishment and
expansion of settlements, and to halt the granting of benefits and incentives to settlements
and settlers;

To put an end to all practices and policies resulting in the territorial
fragmentation of the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem, which are

To take and implement serious measures, including the confiscation of arms
and enforcement of criminal sanctions, with the aim of ensuring full accountability for and
preventing all acts of violence by Israeli settlers, to take other measures to guarantee the
safety and protection of Palestinian civilians and Palestinian properties and to afford all
victims of settler violence access to justice and effective remedy without discrimination in
the Occupied Palestinian Territory, including East Jerusalem;
