Airbnb: Stop Listing Vacation Rentals in West Bank Settlements
Stop listing vacation rentals in West Bank settlements on your website, or identify them as being in the West Bank.
Why is this important?
Airbnb is coming under criticism for listing vacation rentals in West Bank settlements on their website without identifying their location in the West Bank. [1]
In a recent report, Human Rights Watch said businesses should stop operating in West Bank settlements because they violate the rights of Palestinian civilians. [2]
Urge Airbnb to stop listing vacation rentals in West Bank settlements on their website, or identify them as being in the West Bank, by signing our petition.
