Abstract
The paper deals with the recent report on the fact-finding mission established by the UN Human Rights Council in order to investigate the implications of the Israeli settlements on the civil, political, economic, social and cultural rights of the Palestinian people throughout the Occupied Palestinian Territory. After focusing on the findings of the mission, the paper underlines the inadequate attention paid to some fundamental aspects and stresses the need for further reflection on the role and efficacy of human rights fact-finding.
