Swiss supermarket giant Migros to label items from Israel's occupied territories...

The Swiss wholesaler Migros sells a number of products from Palestinian territories occupied by Israel, such as dates, potatoes, fruit, herbs and Soda-Club machines.

In the future, the store will declare their origins.

At the moment, these products are declared to be from “Israel.”

However, some products are actually imported from Palestinian territories like the West Bank and Gaza Strip, which are being settled by Israel, said a report in the Migros Magazine on Monday.

The settlements violate international law, according to the UN and the Federal Council. Full story...
