In Jerusalem, representatives of the Catholic relief agency Caritas have issued a statement condemning Israeli occupation of the West Bank and Gaza, saying that all Israeli settlements in Palestinian territories are "illegal under international law."
In a statement that quoted Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat, Caritas Jerusalem said that the latest moves to build new Jewish settlements in Gaza were "perverse assaults on human dignity." The relief organization criticized Israeli policies that allow Israeli citizens to move onto Palestinian land, while restricting the movement of Palestinians.
