Indonesian diplomat Makarim Wibisono, who was appointed UN monitor for the Palestinian territories in June 2014, offered his resignation on Monday. 

 

He accused Israel of obstructing his work by repeatedly denying him access to the territories and by obstructing his investigations into the 2014 Israeli war on Gaza.

 

“Unfortunately, my efforts to help improve the lives of Palestinian victims of violations under the Israeli occupation have been frustrated every step of the way,” he explained.
