Saudi Arabia Condemns Israeli Authorities’ Decision to Turn UNRWA in Occupied Jerusalem into a Settlement Outpost


The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has expressed the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s strong condemnation of the Israeli occupation authorities’ decision to confiscate the land on which the headquarters of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) is located in occupied Jerusalem and turn it into a settlement outpost.

The ministry affirmed the Kingdom’s rejection of the continued flagrant Israeli violations of international laws and resolutions, done with impunity, and its systematic political and military targeting of the UN agencies and relief organizations, which poses risks to the lives of its workers, and expressed the Kingdom’s support for UNRWA’s humanitarian mission of providing relief assistance to Palestinian refugees.
