💨 Abstract

Israeli authorities have ordered the closure of six UNRWA schools in East Jerusalem within 30 days, impacting nearly 800 Palestinian students. The move comes amid a campaign against UNRWA, which provides education and healthcare to Palestinian refugees. Parents and teachers worry about the impact on education and safety, as the nearby Israeli schools are overcrowded and some students face barriers to access. Israeli forces used tear gas near the school, highlighting the tense environment.
