Israeli protesters break into Unrwa facility in occupied east Jerusalem

The UN agency for Palestinian refugees (Unrwa) said on Monday that Israeli protesters have broken into its compound in East Jerusalem.

The organisation’s West Bank coordinator Roland Friedrich said that around a dozen Israeli protesters, including a member of parliament, forcefully entered the compound on Monday.

Earlier, hundreds of Israelis stormed Al-Aqsa mosque and its surrounding areas, waving Israeli flags and chanting to celebrate “Jerusalem Day” and Israel's occupation of East Jerusalem.
