United Nations: General Assembly Resolution on the Uprising (Intifadah) of the Palestinian People

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  27 February 2017

Extract

Both the General Assembly and the Security Council are concerned about the occupied territories, and have indicated the gravity of the situation since the uprising of the Palestinian people began in December 1987.

On December 22, 1987, the U.N. Security Council adopted Resolution 605 (1987), which requested the Secretary-General to examine the situation in the occupied territories and submit a report containing his recommendations on ways and means to ensure the safety and protection of the Palestinian civilians under Israeli occupation. The recommendations contained in that report are referred to in operative paragraph 7 of the following General Assembly resolution. Consequently, the report has been reproduced after the General Assembly Resolution 43/21.
