From this author
جاء طوفان الأقصى في لحظة ضعف تاريخي للحركة الطلابية بعد سنوات طويلة من تحييد الطلاب والملاحقة الأمنية من قبل الإحتلال والسلطة، فكيف يمكن لهذه الحركة أن تعيد بناء نفسها وتستعيد نشاطها في ظل التحديات غير المسبوقة التي تواجه الشعب الفلسطيني، وكيف يمكنها التعاون مع واستغلال الهبة الطلابية العارمة لنصرة القضية الفلسطينية حول العالم؟
The Israeli regime has been systematically violating the rights of Palestinian workers in Israel and its illegal settlements since 1967. How have these violations been exacerbated since the COVID-19 pandemic? Al-Shabaka’s guest contributor, Ihab Maharmeh, examines Israel’s ongoing abuses of Palestinian workers’ labor and human rights. He offers recommendations for securing these rights and for holding Israel accountable.
