Israel affirms deadline for UNRWA to leave Jerusalem
Radio National Breakfast — Separate stories podcast - A podcast by ABC listen - Sundays
Israel has given the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) 48 hours to leave Jerusalem, despite warnings that it will have dire consequences for millions of Palestinians. The order comes after Israel passed legislation late last year barring the agency from operating in Jerusalem, severely curtailing its activities in Gaza and the West Bank.
