Off-wiki misconduct in Palestine–Israel topic area

As previously announced, the Arbitration Committee received private evidence appearing to reflect off-wiki misconduct related to several editors in the Palestine–Israel topic area. The Committee sent a copy of the evidence to the users in question via email, notified them on their talk pages, and gave them an opportunity to respond. Based on the evidence and the responses, the matter has been resolved as follows:

This ban may be appealed twelve months after the enactment of this remedy, and every twelve months thereafter.
