Cairo - Egypt Today
The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, Prince Zeid bin Ra’ad Zeid al-Hussein, plans to publish by the end of the year a blacklist of international companies doing business in Israeli settlements in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, as well as Israeli communities in the Golan Heights, Ynet reported.
The commissioner has already submitted a draft of the list to the countries these companies are based in, so they could give their responses by September 1.
There are several American companies on the list—including Caterpillar, TripAdvisor, Priceline and Airbnb—and the US administration is reportedly putting pressure on the UN not to release it.
