Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµRWA is deeply concerned about the situation in Shu’fat Refugee Camp, where its installations are at imminent risk of unlawful seizure and takeover by the Israeli authorities.

In the latest incidents, occurring over recent days, Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµRWA installations inside Shu’fat Camp have been entered into without authorisation by personnel linked to the Jerusalem Municipality. This includes the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµRWA schools complex, and the compound where the Health Centre and Camp Community Services Office are located.

Entry into these premises was forced, with the locks on the gates being broken. Contractors under the auspices of the Jerusalem Municipality have also commenced working in the sites, including painting and other works.

Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµRWA installations are protected under international law by the Privileges and Immunities of the United Nations.

Shu’fat Camp is located in occupied East Jerusalem. These events are occurring in parallel to the recent unlawful entries into the Agency’s Kalandia Training Centre.
