Israel is NOT the only one dismantling UNRWA; they’re being drained by donors & shut out of any decision-making rooms to lead them towards collapsing Their biggest Arab donor at the moment gives only $10m, the 2nd biggest gives only $2m, both are tiny drops in an ocean There’s a deliberate effort by many countries to disappear UNRWA from any conference, workshop, roundtable…. Donor countries only talk about UNRWA in terms of humanitarian aid, but not service provision & bookkeeping of Palestinian refugees. Cowardice, complicity & betrayal!

I strongly condemn the unauthorized entry into the @UN Sheikh Jarrah compound held by @UNRWA in occupied East Jerusalem by Israeli authorities. This compound is inviolable & immune from any other form of interference. I urge Israel to immediately take all necessary steps to restore, preserve & uphold the inviolability of UNRWA premises & to refrain from taking any further action with regard to these premises.
