U.N. Condemns Israeli Raid on UNRWA Headquarters in Occupied East Jerusalem

HeadlineDec 09, 2025

In occupied East Jerusalem, the United Nations has condemned a raid by Israeli forces on the headquarters of the U.N.’s Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees, known as UNRWA. A spokesperson for the secretary-general said the raid directly violated international law.

Stéphane Dujarric: “Police motorcycles, as well as trucks and forklifts, were brought in, and all communications were cut. Furniture, IT equipment and other property was seized, and the U.N. flag was pulled down and replaced by the Israeli flag. … This compound remains United Nations premises and is inviolable and immune from any other form of interference.”
