UN slams Israel for refusing to cooperate

The UN Special rapporteur on human rights in the occupied Palestinian territories has stepped down over what he described as Israel’s refusal to cooperate with the world body. Makarim Wibi-sono presented his final report to the UN Human Rights Council, saying Israel did not make good on its promise to give him access to the occupied Palestinian territories. He added that the lack of cooperation signals the continued suffering of Palestinians and daily human rights violations under the Israeli occupation. Wibisono said his successor should continue voicing alarm at the recent escalation of violence between Palestinians and Israel. At least 206 Palestinians have been killed in the wave of violence since early October.
