This is the best summary I could come up with:

LGBTQ+ Palestinians in danger due to their sexual orientation can request asylum in Israel, the Tel Aviv District Court for Administrative Affairs ruled on Sunday, according to KAN news.

In the appeal, the Palestinian described how he was pushed into coming out to his parents after he refused to marry the woman they had chosen for him and how his father responded by attacking him and calling for additional relatives to assault him as well.

After hiding in Israel for a while, the Palestinian contacted the Civil Authority through an organization that helps LGBTQ+ Arabs to request a residency permit.

Agmon-Gonen rejected the Population Authority’s position concerning Palestinians requesting asylum, ruling that the UN Refugee Convention does apply to Palestinians from the West Bank and that they are entitled to request asylum on the basis of sexual and political persecution.

UNRWA, the UN agency tasked with providing aid to Palestinians, notes on its website that the UN Refugee Convention does not apply to Palestinians who are receiving protection or assistance from UNRWA, unless “such protection or assistance has ceased for any reason, without the position of such persons being definitively settled in accordance with the relevant resolutions adopted by the General Assembly.”

The Aguda - The Association for LGBTQ Equality in Israel expressed outrage at Arbel’s decision to appeal the ruling, stating that this decision “not only contradicts the State of Israel’s duty as a democratic state to stand by those who are persecuted because of their identity, but also contradicts Israel’s efforts to present itself around the world as an LGBTQ-friendly country during the war.”
