———“‘This evening, Israeli residents set fire twice to the perimeter of the #UNRWA headquarters in occupied east Jerusalem,’ agency chief Philippe Lazzarini said on X, formerly Twitter, lamenting that it was the second attack on the compound in a matter of days.”
“Thursday’s arson attempts marked ‘an outrageous development,’ Lazzarini said. ‘Once again, the lives of UN staff were at a serious risk’.
“‘In light of this second appalling incident in less than a week, I have taken the decision to close down our compound until proper security is restored.’”
