Involvement in Israeli settlements[]

On 12 February 2020, the United Nations published a database of companies doing business related in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, as well as in the occupied Golan Heights.[2] Mer Group was listed on the database on account of its activities in Israeli settlements in these occupied territories,[3] which are considered illegal under international law.[4]
