This episode, in collaboration with the New Israel Fund, is a slightly edited recording of a January 28th 2021 panel discussion introducing a report by three Israeli organizations, Yesh Din, Physicians for Human Rights Israel (PHRI), and Breaking the Silence.

The report documents the practice that is so associated with Israel’s military occupation of the West Bank: invasions of Palestinians' homes.
