PRESS RELEASE
Statement by Humanitarian for Development and Humanitarian Activities in the Occupied Palestinian Territory,
 Mr. Robert Piper, on a stone-throwing attack on a Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ vehicle in East Jerusalem
 

Jerusalem, 9 October 2015

“I condemn yesterday evening’s stone-throwing attack on a clearly marked United Nations (Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ) vehicle traveling on Route 50 in East Jerusalem, which seriously injured a senior Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ official. I join the rest of the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ family in wishing our colleague a speedy recovery.

This unacceptable violence will not deter the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ in its commitment to delivering assistance to those in need and improving people’s lives in the occupied Palestinian territory, as well as restoring the hope for a just and negotiated two-state solution.”
