<p>The UK regularly raises the issue of demolitions, confiscations and forced evictions
of Palestinians from their homes with the Government of Israel, most recently with
Israel's Ministry of Defence on 19 October. The former Foreign Secretary raised ongoing
evictions, demolitions and settlement activity with the Israeli Authorities during
his visit to the region on 26 May. The UK is clear that in all but the most exceptional
of circumstances, demolitions and evictions are contrary to International Humanitarian
Law. We continue to urge the Israeli and Palestinian leaderships to avoid actions
which make peace more difficult to achieve.</p>
