💨 Abstract

Israel permanently closed six UNRWA schools in east Jerusalem, affecting over 800 Palestinian students. The closures follow Israel's ban on UNRWA operations, citing alleged antisemitic content in the schools, which UNRWA denies. The Israeli Ministry of Education plans to relocate students, but parents and teachers express concerns about dangerous checkpoints and permit issues. UNRWA vowed to keep the schools open as long as possible.
