Tell the Home Secretary: Stop the Great Israeli Real Estate Event 2026

On 14 June, the ‘Great Israeli Real Estate Event 2026’ is to be held London. This disgraceful event will involve the brazen sale of land stolen from Palestinians. It is openly advertising that this will include property in ‘Gush Etzion’, an illegal Israeli settlement.

We are calling on the Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood, to take all necessary steps to ensure that criminal charges are brought and to stop the sale of land that is illegally occupied under international law.

<div>Dear Home Secretary,</div><div><div class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW29394289 BCX8">On 14 June, the ‘Great Israeli Real Estate Event’ is to be held in London. This event is openly advertising the sale of land in ‘Gush Etzion’, an illegal Israeli settlement in the occupied West Bank. It is unthinkable that this illegal activity should be allowed to go ahead. We urge you to take all necessary steps to ensure that criminal charges are brought against those who are enabling the sale of stolen Palestinian land and to prevent the event from going ahead. </div><div class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW29394289 BCX8">Article 49 of the Fourth Geneva Convention states that it is illegal for an occupying power to transfer its own civilian population into the land it occupies. The unlawful appropriation of property by an occupying power amounts to the crime of pillage, which is prohibited by both the Hague Regulations and Fourth Geneva Convention and is a war crime under the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. </div><div class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW29394289 BCX8">Israel’s settlements in occupied Palestinian territory, which displace the indigenous Palestinian population and steal Palestinian land, are illegal under international law.  </div><div class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW29394289 BCX8">This event is a blatant attempt to further Israeli land grabs within the West Bank, by inviting new settlers to purchase stolen Palestinian land. Meanwhile, Palestinian refugees who have been displaced by Israel, and their descendants, are denied the ability to exercise their legally enshrined right of return. The website advertising this event makes clear that it is working with Bank Leumi, an Israeli bank which finances construction in illegal settlements in the occupied West Bank. This event is clearly deeply embedded in Israel’s project of colonial expansion: it facilitates the sale of land that has been stolen from Palestinians, and advertises an attractive image of life in an apartheid state that is carrying out a genocide.  </div><div class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW29394289 BCX8">Since 1967, Israel has constructed tens of thousands of houses on Palestinian land to accommodate illegal settlers while at the same time demolishing an estimated 50,000 Palestinian homes and other structures essential to life, including agricultural buildings and water tanks. This too is illegal under international law.  </div><div class="OutlineElement Ltr SCXW29394289 BCX8">The British government must ensure that the Metropolitan police investigate this event’s illegal activity, and take urgent steps to prevent this illegal sale from taking place.  </div></div>
