Palestinian right to resist

This right, recognized under international law, is based on the principle of self-determination for all peoples under foreign and colonial rule.

Such a right is derived from Protocol I, Declaration on Friendly Relations,[5] as well as several resolutions of the United Nations Security Council and General Assembly.

[10] Palestinians have a recognized right under international law to resist Israeli occupation under Protocol I of the Geneva Conventions.

[13][14] The United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) has expressly affirmed the right of Palestinians to resist Israeli military occupation, including through armed struggle.
