Guterres urges Netanyahu on Hague
The Secretary-General of the United Nations, António Guterres, expressed his deep concern over the entry of Israeli security forces into a facility operated by the UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) in Kafr Aqab, East Jerusalem. He emphasized that this site is a UN property entitled to legal protection. Guterres confirmed that these actions constitute clear violations of the site's immunity and represent a breach of Israel's legal obligations. He indicated the possibility of turning to the International Court of Justice in The Hague as a legal step if the violations continue. In response, Israel dismissed the warnings, asserting that sovereignty over Jerusalem is theirs and that they will continue to enforce their laws, threatening to ignore UN threats. Meanwhile, any ruling in favor of UNRWA is expected to bolster international pressure on Israel.
