<p>The Government has concerns about allegations of mistreatment of Palestinian detainees
and about Israel’s respect for its relevant obligations as an Occupying Power under
applicable international law. While we have not made an assessment of the humanitarian
needs of Palestinian detainees, a focus of UK human rights engagement is Palestinian
minors in Israeli military detention, as we have concerns about the treatment of minors
during arrest and interrogation. We have raised these concerns with the Israeli authorities
on many occasions, and will continue to do so.</p>
