An occupying force has no right to defence from the people being occupied whereas the occupied territories have the right to defend themselves from occupying forces.
This right is affirmed in the context of the right of self-determination of all peoples under foreign and colonial rule. The United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) has expressly affirmed the right of #Palestinians to resist #Israeli military occupation, including through armed struggle.
