BEIRUT, LEBANON - SEPTEMBER 26: A former domestic worker hangs her laundry to dry on September 26, 2020 in Beirut, Lebanon. Lebanon accounts some 250,000 migrant women from African and Asian countries and working in private households.

The ICJ, Israel's Occupation and the Realization of Palestinian Rights

A female Israeli soldier stands guard at the Qalandia checkpoint, south of Ramallah, as thousands of Palestinians wait to cross from the West Bank to Jerusalem for Friday prayers at the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, hours after a Palestinian teenager was killed by Israeli soldiers after throwing stones at an Israeli military patrol, on the third Friday of the Muslim holy fasting month of Ramadan on July 3, 2015. Israel has responded to recent violence by revoking permits for Palestinians living in the West Bank to visit relatives in the Gaza Strip and has limited Palestinian access to flashpoint Al-Aqsa mosque compound.
