The motion

That this House condemns the repeated attacks by Israeli forces on the Bilal Al Najjar cultural and community centre in the village of Burin, outside Nablus on the occupied West Bank; notes that the centre has come under extreme levels of intimidation since its inception, with volunteers continually arrested and property destroyed; protests about the most serious instance of vandalism by Israeli Defence Force soldiers on 11 April 2013 when every piece of equipment, including computers, desks and artworks, was destroyed; and demands that the Government bring what pressure it can on the Israeli government both to restrain its soldiers and to immediately recompense the villagers for their loss.
