              <p><span>The United Nations human rights office (OHCHR)
                  has finally released a long-delayed report, on
                  Wednesday, listing over one hundred businesses that
                  have ties with illegal Jewish settlements in the
                  occupied Palestinian Territories.</span></p>
              <p><span>Despite intense Israeli pressures to dissuade the
                  institution from naming companies that benefit from
                  the Israeli occupation, OHCHR revealed the identities
                  of 112 businesses, 94 of which are based in Israel,
                  while the rest operate in six other countries. </span></p>
