War on Gaza: Isreali Knesset Ban on UNRWA's Will Deepen Sufferings, Misery of Palestine Refugees in Gaza - Envoy


From Aviashima Toom, Abuja 

SAHEL ReportersNews: The Ambassador of the Embassy of the state of Palestine, Abdullah M. Abu Shawesh said the Israeli Knesset illegal approver of a bill to end UNRWA's activity in the occupied West bank including East Jerusalem and Gaza strip will deepen the suffering and misery of millions of Palestinian refugees especially in Gaza.
He further said that, the decision will deprive nearly 650,000 students of their right to education in Gaza alone. 

He revealed this during a press briefing on Thursday in Abuja noted that UNRWA “employing 30,000 Palestinians, served almost 6 million refugees, including in Gaza where 1,476,706 Palestinians are registered as refugees in eight Palestinian refugee camps, while in the West Bank 800,000 are registered.
It will be recall that  Israel passed a law on Monday banning the U.N. Palestinian refugee agency UNRWA from operating in the country, legislation that could impact its work in war-torn Gaza.

This bill according to Shawesh does not revoke the refugee status of Palestinians, as it is safeguarded by UNGA resolutions and many other international law instruments until their right to return is acknowledged and the question of Palestinian refugees is resolved by implementing UN Resolution 194. 

He also revealed statistics of the 391st day of the US-Israeli heinous, malicious, and vindictive genocide, some of which includes;  a risen death toll to 43,163, with 101,510 injured. 
He explained that ss of October 30, for the 24th day in a row, the northern Gaza Strip has been completely cut off from the rest of the enclave, under a total siege with no access to humanitarian aid, medical assistance, supplies, water, and other basic necessities for life. 

"This has led to nearly 1000 martyrs, tens of missing persons and thousands injured, in addition to hundreds of homes being completely razed. 

"The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) estimates that more than 60,000 people have been displaced in northern Gaza in October alone.

"UNICEF estimates that at least 19,000 children have been separated from their families, forced to fend for themselves. Children are being medically evacuated from Gaza at a rate of fewer than one child per day. If this lethally slow pace continues, it would take more than seven years to evacuate the 2,500 children needing urgent medical care. 
"As of October 28, the total number of arrests has reached 11,500 in the occupied West Bank, including Jerusalem. This includes 430 women, 750 children, and 132 journalists, with 59 of them still under arrest, including 6 women journalists and 31 journalists from Gaza. 

"More than 9,392 administrative detainees have been reported. 41 prisoners were martyred, and their bodies are still being held captive. In Gaza only, at least 232 UNRWA staff have been killed. Over 200 UNRWA premises have been damaged or destroyed.


“On the one-year anniversary of the October 7 attack, a survey published by the Israel Democracy Institute found that only 6% of Israelis think the war in Gaza should be stopped due to the “the great cost in human life.”

"On the adapted Transforming our world: the 2030 agenda for sustainable development. The international community raised a brilliant slogan call “We pledge that no one will be left behind.

"We the Palestinians, were left behind". Shawesh decries
