PRESS STATEMENT 009

Spain rejects the entry into force of Knesset laws on UNRWA

Today
The Government rejects the entry into force of the Knesset laws preventing UNRWA operations in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, and calls for the suspension of their application.

Spain expresses its deepest concern about the impact this decision will have on the humanitarian situation in Gaza and the rest of the Occupied Palestinian Territories, endangering the ceasefire initiated on 19 January.

UNRWA is essential and irreplaceable for the lives of the 6 million refugees to whom it provides essential services, as well as for regional stability, and Spain firmly supports its work.
