Abstract
Israel also strongly supported the 1951 United Nations Refugee Convention, advocating for global asylum. In 1967, Israel fought allied Arab forces resulting in the occupation of Palestinian land and residents in the Gaza Strip and West Bank. [...]most of the 25,000 or so Eritrean refugees in Israel remain without full legal status (UNHCR). Following this 1951 convention, Israel's 1954 Prevention of Infiltration Law rendered illegal Palestinian return from nearby Arab countries to which refugees had fled—a way to reduce the Arab "demographic threat" perceived by Israel.
