Wednesday 25 September 2013: We support the campaign by Action for Palestinian Children to ensure the rights of Palestinian children are upheld in accordance with international human rights treaties and international law.
We call on Israel to implement these recommendations:
1) An end to Israel’s nighttime raids and shackling of Palestinian children;
2) Audio-visual recordings of all interrogations;
3) Parents given the right to be present during questioning and the child’s right to access to a lawyer before their interrogation respected; 4) An end to the transfer of children to prisons inside Israel in breach of article 76 of the fourth Geneva convention; 5) An end to the use of solitary confinement.
We call on Israel to implement all recommendations made in the independent report Children in Military Custody.
