Palestinian Territories: Right to family life denied: Foreign
spouses of Palestinians barred, by (21 March 2007)
- Quote from website: "Tens of thousands of foreign nationals
who are married to residents of the Palestinian territories
occupied by Israel since 1967 are not allowed to live with
their husband or wife by the Israeli authorities... Israel
controls the borders of the Occupied Palestinian Territories
(OPT) and forbids foreign spouses from entering. The husbands
and wives who are denied entry are not seeking admittance
to Israel. They simply want to enter the OPT to live with
their spouse in the West Bank or Gaza Strip."
