The Security Council,
Reaffirming its resolution 681 (1990),
Having learned with deep concern and consternation that Israel has, in violation
of its obligations under the Fourth Geneva Convention of 1949, and acting in
opposition to relevant Security Council resolutions, and to the detriment of
efforts to achieve a comprehensive, just and lasting peace in the Middle East,
deported four Palestinian civilians on 18 May 1991,
1. Declares that the action of the Israeli authorities of deporting four
Palestinians on 18 May is in violation of the Fourth Geneva Convention of 1949,
which is applicable to all the Palestinian territories occupied by Israel since
1967, including Jerusalem;
2. Deplores this action and reiterates that Israel, the occupying Power, refrain
from deporting any Palestinian civilian from the occupied territories and ensure
the save and immediate return of all those deported;
3. Decides to keep the situation under review.
Adopted unanimously. |
