UNRWA received alarming reports that armed actors continue to occupy its installations including a school compound in Ein El Hilweh Palestine refugee camp in the south of Lebanon. UNRWA facilities have reportedly been damaged by the recent fighting in the camp.The compound has four UNRWA schools that normally provide education to 3,200 Palestine Refugee children.This is a grave violation of the inviolability of UN premises under international law, which compromises the neutrality of UNRWA installations and undermines the safety and security of our staff and Palestine Refugees.
So who are these "armed actors"? And why doesn't UNRWA name names?
It sounds like it is both the Fatah side and the Islamists who are violating UNRWA schools.
A local Palestinian official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media, said militants from both of the opposing sides had taken over different schools, using them as a “safe haven,” and had looted computers and equipment.
When they don't have Jews around to attack, Palestinians attack each other.
Let's give them a state!
