UN Strongly Condemns Occupation Police Raid on UNRWA-Run School New York, 19 Feb (ONA) — The United Nations has strongly
condemned the Israeli occupation police raiding schools run by the UN
Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) in the
occupied East Jerusalem.
UN Spokesperson Stephane Dujarric said that Secretary-General
Antonio Guterres “strongly condemns the breach of the inviolability
of United Nations premises in occupied East Jerusalem, including the
UNRWA Kalandia Training Centre, and the attempt to forcibly enter
three UNRWA schools and to seek their closure.”
“The use of tear gas and sound bombs in educational environments
while students are learning is both unnecessary and unacceptable.
This is a clear violation of Israel’s obligations under international
law, including obligations concerning the privileges and immunities
of the UN and its personnel. The inviolability of United Nations
premises must be respected at all times,” he added.
Israeli occupation authorities yesterday (Tuesday) stormed UNRWA-run school and
forced its staff to close it after evacuating the students.— Ends/Khalid
