Armed Israeli forces forcefully entered and closed Jerusalem schools run by the UN’s agency for Palestinian refugees on Thursday, in the latest step by authorities to push the organisation out of territory governed by Israel. “Heavily armed” Israeli personnel, along with municipal and education officials, raided three UNRWA schools in the Shuafat refugee camp, detaining a staff member and ordering others to dismiss students immediately, according to a statement from the organisation. It said the actions were a “violation of international law”.
