Palestinian territories rank as third lowest nation in children's access to justice

This is the page on the Palestine Territories from it:

Palestinian Territory, Occupied

The Occupied Palestinian Territories consist of three non-contiguous areas: the West Bank, the Gaza Strip and East Jerusalem. The Occupied Palestinian Territories are not an independent State, but operate a limited degree of self government in some parts under the Palestinian Authority, though the election of 2006 saw this divided between the Hamas governed Gaza Strip and the Fatah-run West Bank. In addition to the continuing violations committed by Israeli forces in the Occupied territories and the enormous harm caused by the occupation, both Palestinian factions have been accused of human rights abuses, including torture, arbitrary imprisonment and executions.
