Jerusalem, MINA – Israeli occupation authorities have forcibly removed students and shut down a school operated by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) in occupied Jerusalem, according to a report by the Wafa news agency on Tuesday.
The Jerusalem governorate stated that Israeli forces raided the UNRWA-affiliated Jerusalem Boys’ Elementary School in the Wadi Al-Joz district, forcing students out before ordering staff to close the institution.
This move comes after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a directive to ban UNRWA operations in the city.
Under the new restrictions, all UNRWA activities within areas claimed as Israeli territory are now prohibited, including running offices and providing services.
