A/HRC/35/19/Add.1 to prevent such statements. The recommendation is therefore considered as “not implemented”. 36. In December 2016, the Security Council called on both parties to “refrain from provocative actions, incitement and inflammatory rhetoric, with the aim, inter alia, of deescalating the situation on the ground, rebuilding trust and confidence, […] and creating the conditions necessary for promoting peace.”49 Based on this as well as the above paragraphs, the overall recommendation has therefore been assessed as “not implemented” by any of the parties. C. Arrest and detention 37. The review identified 106 recommendations that concern arrest and detention (11 per cent of the total number of recommendations). Two recommendations have been selected as illustrative examples of recommendations in this category, discussed in detail below.

Regarding the first part of the recommendation, the Secretary-General noted in May 2016 that the large number of arrests of Palestinian children by Israel seemed incompatible with its use as a last resort.51 According to official data provided to Israeli NGOs by the Israeli Prison Service, at the end of August 2016, 319 Palestinian minors were being held in Israeli prisons, 10 of whom were in administrative detention. Out of the 319 minors, 168 were being held in pre-trial detention until the conclusion of the judicial proceedings. Israel has since stopped providing such data to civil society organizations despite requests sent based on the 1998 Freedom of Information Law. 52 According to UNICEF data, the arrest of Palestinian children has continued to increase, 53 as has the use of administrative detention.54 40. As Israeli authorities have continued to detain children as a regular practice, this element of the recommendation is assessed as “not implemented”. 41. The second part of the recommendation requires that Israel ensure that child detention undergoes judicial review on a daily basis with a view to eliminating it.
