East Jerusalem

East Jerusalem is a contested area, claimed by both Israelis and Palestinians, and is a focal point of ongoing conflict. Recent news highlights Israel's demolition of the UNRWA headquarters in East Jerusalem, drawing strong condemnation from numerous countries who view it as a violation of international law and an attempt to undermine UNRWA's work with Palestinian refugees. This demolition, along with other actions like eviction orders for Bedouin families and restrictions on aid organizations operating in Gaza, including demands for staff details, are making international headlines. Aid organizations like MSF and Oxfam are facing pressure, with some agreeing to provide information while others refuse, citing concerns for staff safety. These events underscore the volatile situation in East Jerusalem and the broader Israeli-Palestinian conflict, raising concerns about humanitarian access and adherence to international law.
