Reparations may take the form of restitution, compensation or satisfaction.425 Furthermore, in its commentary to the Draft Articles, the ILC clarifies that for a state to make ‘full reparation,’ it must endeavor to “wipe out all the consequences of the illegal act and reestablish the situation which would, in all probability, have existed if that act had not been committed.”426 Based on this legal framework, Israel is obligated to end all arbitrary forced displacement of the Palestinian population who hold Israeli citizenship as well as the one in the oPt. Moreover, it has the obligation to provide reparations. In the Palestinian case, reparations include repatriation to their homes, compensation, and property restitution427 outlined in the UNGA 194 (III) as the primary durable solution.428 Legal Status Although Israel has the primary responsibility to safeguard the rights of Palestinians in the territory, both those with Israeli citizenship, and those subject to its jurisdiction (including refugees and IDPs), it actually operates a regime that denies their most basic rights. Via a system akin to that of apartheid South Africa’s Pass Laws, Israel has classified and categorized 424 International Law Commission, ‘Draft articles on Responsibility of States for Internationally Wrongful Acts�� (2001) Supplement No. 10 (A/56/10), ch IV.E.1, art 31 [hereinafter ILC Draft Articles] <https://legal.un.org/ilc/texts/ instruments/english/commentaries/9_6_2001.pdf> accessed 3 October 2022. 425 Ibid., 28-39; Forms of reparations as per the Draft Articles include restitution, compensation and satisfaction. 426 Ibid., art 31. 427 BADIL, Denial of Reparations (n 45), 28-32. 428 UNGA Res 194 (III) (n 317). 95 Chapter As for Israel’s general obligation towards all displaced Palestinians, it emanates from its commission of an internationally wrongful act, that is, forcibly displacing Palestinians. Under the Law of State Responsibility as set out in the International Law Commission’s (ILC) Draft Articles on the Responsibility of States for Internationally Wrongful Acts (“Draft Articles”), states are under an obligation not to commit an internationally wrongful act.424 Upon the commission of such an act, the state concerned is under obligation to: 4 As the Occupying Power, Israel is therefore prohibited from forcibly displacing any Palestinian in the oPt unless for those reasons. Notwithstanding this prohibition, Israel has established a system of oppression and forcible transfer aimed at transferring Palestinians from their homes in order to empty the land for further colonial expansion. These various policies of forcible transfer have resulted in large numbers of Palestinians becoming internally displaced inside the oPt, as demonstrated by the amount of 372,793 IDPs in the West Bank and Gaza Strip.
