Demolishing mental health report

A central theme in the Israeli–Palestinian conflict is the demolition of homes and other buildings coupled with the forced displacement of Palestinian population that is taking place in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.

Since its occupation of the West Bank and East Jerusalem began in 1967, Israel has been pursuing a policy aimed at expanding its Israeli settlements through displacement of the Palestinian population, with the ultimate objective of annexing the Palestine territory. The Palestinian population’s vulnerability stems largely from the occupation policies and the violation of its rights that is the seizing of Palestinian land for the building and expansion of Israeli settlements.
