quoted in the United Nations. Suffice it to point out that 87 per cent of the adult population in Palestinian refugee camps have been subject to arrest or detention. Thousands of times the occupationists used their weapons, resulting in the killing and wounding of about 650 Palestinians, includ- ing more than 100 women and children. 132. The most recent wave of repression and terror in the occupied territories is aimed at creating an atmosphere of terror among the Palestinians, forcing them to leave their ancestral homes to create so-called living space for the Israeli settlers. The implementation of these criminal acts-criminal from the point of view of international law-by Israel and its disregard of decisions of the Secu- rity Council and of the General Assembly have been made possible by the direct economic, military, political and diplomatic assistance and support from the United States. As a result of this position, all proposals aimed at solving the Palestinian problem have been blocked. 133. The delegation of the ‘Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic categorically condemns the aggressive expansion- ist policy of Israel and its most recent acts of repression’ against the Palestinians in the occupied territories. We are in favour of the immediate cessation of those actions and support the draft resolution contained in document s/17459. 134, The PRESIDENT: I should like to inform members of the Council that I have just received a letter from the representative of the Islamic Republic of Iran in which he requests to be invited to participate in the discussion of the item on the agenda. In accordance with the usual practice, I propose, with the consent of the Council, to invite that representative to participate in the discussion without the right to vote, in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Charter and rule 37 of the provisional rules of procedure. 
**Analysis**
The text appears to be a statement made by a representative of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic at the United Nations, condemning Israel's actions against Palestinians in the occupied territories. The text highlights the humanitarian crisis, human rights violations, and the political situation, which suggests that the category is more related to international relations and politics rather than economic or environmental issues.
