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.

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.
