Human Rights Watch has accused Israel of pursuing policies of persecution against Palestinians and its own Arab minority that amount to crimes against humanity.

New York-based human rights organization published a comprehensive report to assess Israeli policies under the international law.

In its report, HRW pointed to Israeli restrictions on Palestinian movement and seizure of Palestinian-owned land for Jewish settlement in territory occupied in the 1967 Middle East war as examples of policies of persecution.
