UN's human rights chief: Israel hurting peace activists

The United Nations human rights chief Navi Pillay said Israel had aroused concern with draft laws that could restrict the activities of human rights defenders and noted that "peaceful activists have been injured and arrested for protesting the construction of the wall in occupied Palestinian territories."

 

Pillay also criticized Hamas saying what she called "the de facto authorities" in the Gaza Strip had shut down civil society organizations. (Reuters)
