Israel Bans #UNRWA: What is the future for #PalestinianRefugees? w/ #DianaButtu

"[W]e visit Al Jalazon refugee camp to hear from Mahfouz Safi, whose family was forcibly expelled from Beit Nabala in 1948 by Zionist militias. Through his story—and the voices of his sister, Jihad, we uncover the far-reaching impact of #Israel’s crackdown on the agency that has provided education, healthcare, and aid to millions for over seven decades."

"Schools run by #UNRWA, the UN refugee agency for #PalestinianRefugees, have been havens for civilians fleeing Israeli bombing in Gaza. But a string of UNRWA-run schools sheltering #DisplacedPalestinians have been bombed and the agency’s headquarters in #Gaza City was destroyed. Where can #Palestinians find safety?"

#Zionists now lying & stealing #watermelon symbol🤡💩

#Israeli protesters held watermelon balloons & keys in #London, claiming the symbols originated in #Israel & they're bringing them “back to where they belong”.

Israel banned public displays of #PalestinianFlag in #OccupiedTerritories. #Palestinians began using the watermelon, which shares its colours & had became a symbol of Palestinian resistance. Keys represent lost homes of #PalestinianRefugees & right to return.

The US, UK, Italy, and other countries have suspended funding for the UN agency for Palestinian refugees following suspicions of its staff's involvement in attacks by HAMAS. The US, as the biggest donor, suspended its funding after Israel provided evidence that 12 UNRWA employees may have been involved in the attacks on October 7. #UNRWA #PalestinianRefugees
