<p>The UK is concerned by the continued demolition of Palestinian property and structures
by Israeli authorities. In all but the most exceptional of circumstances demolitions
are contrary to International Humanitarian Law. The practice causes unnecessary suffering
to ordinary Palestinians and is harmful to the peace process. Officials from our Embassy
in Tel Aviv have repeatedly raised our concerns about demolitions with Israeli Ministers
and senior officials, and urged them to cease the counter-productive policy of demolitions.
We call on Israel to provide a clear, transparent route to construction for Palestinians
in Area C.</p>
