<p>We regularly raise the issue of the numbers of Palestinians killed and injured
by Israeli Defence Forces in the West Bank and Gaza with the Israeli authorities.
When there have been accusations of excessive use of force, we encourage them to carry
out swift, transparent and thorough investigations and, if wrongdoing is found, that
those responsible be held to account. We make it clear to Israel that it is important
that the security forces provide appropriate protection to the Palestinian civilian
population, particularly the need to protect children, and urge restraint in the use
of live fire.</p>
