Israeli occupation closes UNRWA school in occupied Jerusalem

Today, Tuesday, the Israeli occupation authorities closed a school affiliated with the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) in the occupied city of Jerusalem.


The Jerusalem Governorate reported that an occupation force stormed the Jerusalem Boys' Elementary School, affiliated with UNRWA, in the Wadi al-Joz neighborhood of Jerusalem, and forced its staff to close its doors after evacuating the students from it.


Yesterday, Monday, the Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, issued an order to immediately implement the laws related to banning the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees.


On October 28, 2024, the Israeli Knesset passed two laws by majority vote, the first of which prohibits UNRWA activity within “areas subject to Israeli sovereignty,” while the second prohibits any contact with the agency.
