**On April 8,** Israeli officials published a closure orders issued against six of UNRWA schools in East Jerusalem by entering by force together with armed police. These schools serve some 800 boys and girls, who have no alternatives for their right to education. These closure orders are subject to a 30-day implementation period, are illegal.As UNRWA schools are operationally independent and inviolable under international law, Israel is obliged to protect UN staff and facilities at all times. This crackdown follows recent anti-UNWRA legislative measures in the Knesset, as well as other legislation aimed at banning Palestinians with degrees from Palestinian universities from teaching in schools run by Israeli authorities, further codifying apartheid and educational segregation. **On May 6,** one month later, armed Israeli forces stormed and forcibly shut down three UNRWA-run schools in the Shuafat refugee camp in occupied East Jerusalem, enforcing illegal closure orders issued on 8 April, 2025. On May 6, Israeli forces stormed schools within the Shuafat refugee camp that were operated by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), ordering their closure and for all students to be dismissed : - More than 550 Palestinian children, between the ages of six and 15, were sent home, - Teachers were harassed - One UNRWA staff member was detained. These evacuations left children in tears and left families wondering how their children would continue their education. Palestinian children now face an immediate and devastating loss of access to education. These schools are not only lifelines for Palestinian children, but they are also UN institutions, operating under a mandate granted by the UN General Assembly that explicitly includes East Jerusalem. **Statement of the Accountability Program Director at DCIP** “These acts are a blatant attack on children’s right to an education, on international law, and on the presence of Palestinians in their capital. Forcing children out of their schools at gunpoint is not a security measure—it is a tactic of erasure.” Israel’s assault on UNRWA violates its obligations as a UN member state and is a calculated effort to strip Palestinians of critical, internationally guaranteed resources. DCIP calls on the international community to condemn these acts, enforce international legal obligations, and take immediate steps to protect Palestinian children’s right to education from the growing threat of Israeli state violence and repression. **Philippe Lazzarini, chief of UNRWA, Statement :** *“An assault on children. An assault on education. A sad day in occupied East Jerusalem. This morning, heavily armed Israeli Forces entered three UNRWA schools in Shu’fat Camp in occupied East Jerusalem, forcing over 550 girls and boys who were in classrooms out of their schools. One UNRWA staff member was detained. As a result, UNRWA was forced to evacuate all children across the six schools it runs in East Jerusalem. Now, nearly 800 girls and boys - some as young as 6 years old - are left in shock and trauma. Storming schools and forcing them shut is a blatant disregard of international law. These schools are inviolable premises of the United Nations. By enforcing closure orders issued last month, the Israeli authorities are denying Palestinian children their basic right to learn. UNRWA schools must continue to be open to safeguard an entire generation of children.”* @UNLazzarini  *The posted closure order on the UNRWA Jerusalem Girls’ Elementary School in the town of Silwan after the school’s headquarters were raided.*

**On 11 June, 2025**, Despites 80% of the village was destroyed on May 5, sraeli forces return for demolishing what remained: tents, caves, homes. Residents were expelled again, left with no shelter, water, or power while under summer heat & armed settler watch. **On Monday, 5 May 2025**, in the morning hours, Civil Administration personnel, escorted by Border Police officers and soldiers and equipped with an excavator and bulldozer, arrived in the community of Khirbet Khalet a-Dabe’ in the South Hebron Hills. The forces demolished ten homes, leaving 49 people, including 27 minors, without shelter. - Additionally, the forces demolished 11 sanitation structures, two kitchen structures, 11 water tanks, five water cisterns, three structures used as sheep pens (including a cave), a hospitality hall, an electricity room, a solar power network and water infrastructure. - The community was left with the school building and four residential homes that are still under legal proceedings. Families whose homes were demolished received tents from a humanitarian organization and remained in the community area. **Context:** Khirbet Khalet a-Dabe’ is one of the communities in the Masafer Yatta region of the South Hebron Hills, which Israel declared a “closed military zone” in the early 1980s, with the aim of seizing the area and expelling its residents. Since then, the state has prohibited the development of the communities—many of which predate the occupation of the West Bank—prevented their connection to water and electricity infrastructure, and repeatedly demolished their homes, any infrastructure they tried to build, and even the roads leading to the communities. In recent years, the communities have also suffered repeated settler attacks, often with army assistance, which also allows settlers to establish outposts within the declared “firing zone” adjacent to them. **Testimony of Mohammad_Hesham_Huraini** @MHureini "Today 5 May 2025 in just 2.5 hours Israeli occupation forces destroyed nearly the entire Palestinian village of Khalet Al-dabaa in the South Hebron Hills, part of my community Masafer Yatta. In the short window of 9:00 to 11:30 AM : - They demolished 9 homes, 6 caves, 10 water tanks, 4 animal barns, 11 toilet rooms, 7 water wells, 400 meters of agricultural fencing, the community center, the electricity room, all solar panels, internet systems, and security cameras. Only 2 or 3 houses remain standing. - Shrieks of horror can be heard as the sounds compete: the metallic noise of bending steal and crushed cement, as the people who have lived in this village for centuries are forced to look on without recourse, solution or consolation. - Families were uprooted and left with nothing: no shelter, no water, no power, no means to survive. This is not just demolition it is another deliberate act of ethnic cleansing in Masafer Yatta, unfolding in daylight and met with silence."

‘Al-Mughayyir (Arabic: المغيّر) is a Palestinian village in the Ramallah and al-Bireh Governorate, located 27 kilometers Northeast of Ramallah and 34 kilometers Southeast of Nablus, in the northern West Bank’. Al-Mughayyir is a Palestinian village with a population of approximately 4,500 residents as of 2024. (This is a different place than the close Bedouin village ethnically cleansed on May 22, 2025, with an estimated distance of approximately 10 to 15 kilometers separating them : The both villages have been subjected to repeated attacks by Israeli settlers, but these two communities are distinct in their demographics and specific circumstances) The village of al-Mughayyir, located northeast of Ramallah in the occupied West Bank, has been experiencing escalating violence and hardship, primarily due to intensified Israeli settler attacks and military actions, Particularly since the beginning of May 2025, when harassment and violence have been occurring on a daily basis. Al-Mughayyir has long been a flashpoint due to its proximity to unlawful Israeli settlements and outposts. The village's residents, primarily farmers and herders, have faced repeated land confiscations and restrictions. According to reports, 94.1% of al-Mughayyir's land is classified as Area C, under full Israeli control, limiting Palestinian development and access. The recent surge in violence has exacerbated the villagers' hardships, leading to loss of life, destruction of property, and heightened insecurity. Human rights organizations have condemned these attacks and called for international intervention to protect Palestinian civilians and hold perpetrators accountable. ### **2024 main incidents:** **On April 12, 2024**, approximately 500 Israeli settlers attacked al-Mughayyir following the disappearance and subsequent death of a 14-year-old Israeli settler. The assailants set homes, vehicles, and even a firetruck ablaze, and assaulted residents with stones and firearms. One resident, Jihad Abu Alia, was killed, and 25 others were injured. Eyewitnesses reported that Israeli military forces present did not intervene to halt the violence. The following day, settlers returned, injuring three more villagers, one of them seriously. **On May 11, 2024:** Israeli settlers set fire to olive trees and agricultural crops in the village of Al-Mughayyir, north of Ramallah. ### **2025 main incidents** **On April 6:** Israeli settlers attacked farmer on the road, preventing him to accesss to his fields. **On May 2, 2025:** Israeli forces raided the village and opened fire at Palestinians residents. **On May 3, 2025:** - An Israeli settler came down the hill in the outskirts of the town with a flock of sheep and was joined by another settler with a baby not long after. Both entered the private land of Abu Amjd. - Later in the day, around 3:30 PM, just a few hours after settlers entered the private property of Abu Amjd, two young settlers arrived on an ATV, one of them armed. - The same day, armed Israeli settlers obstructed three Palestinian journalists and an activist while they were documenting ongoing Israeli attacks in the area. The local activist Rabee Abu Naeem was intercepted along with journalists Mohammad Turkman, Karim Khmayseh, and Ahmad Al-Khati by settlers who got out of an ATV while they were filming settlers dismantling tents nearby. The setlers tried to forcibly take the car keys and prevent them from leaving the area. They also attempted to seize the phone used for filming and issued death threats, warning them not to return. According to MANA Center, the two Israeli settlers "*detained a group of journalists in the town of Al-Mughayyir, obstructing their work and threatening to kill or slaughter them if they returned.Freelance journalist MOHAMMAD TURKMAN reported to the MADA Center that he, along with journalist AHMAD AL-KHATIB, KAREEM KHAMAISAH (reporter for Al-Irsal Network), and a local citizen, were in Al-Mughayyir near Ramallah at approximately 4:00PM Saturday to prepare a report on the repeated Israeli incursions into the town. After finishing their report, they learned of the demolition of two tents on the town’s outskirts by Israeli forces and headed to cover the event. They were surprised by a young settler, no older than 15, herding sheep, who immediately called the settlement’s security guard. As the journalists attempted to leave, two settlers arrived—one armed with an automatic rifle. The journalists, who were in a civilian vehicle (not marked as press), were stopped. The settlers questioned their identities and activities. Despite presenting local and international press credentials, the settlers screamed, threatened to summon the police, and held the journalists for about 15 minutes. During the detention, the settlers threatened to shoot and slaughter them, yelling: “Whoever comes here, we will slaughter him” while hurling curses. They were released with a clear threat of death if they returned."* **On May 4, 2025:** In the central West Bank, Israeli paramilitary settlers set fire to agricultural rooms near Al-Mughayyir village, northeast of Ramallah, on Sunday. According to Amin Abu Aliya, the head of the village council in al-Mughayyir, Israeli paramilitary settlers attacked the “Sahl Sa’i” area between the villages of al-Mughayyir and Abu Falah, and burned agricultural sheds and stables belonging to citizens from the neighboring village of Abu Falah and the town of Turmus Ayya. Abu Aliya stated that settlers are constantly attacking the farmland in the area, burning and vandalizing citizens’ lands and property, and that their attacks are escalating, especially after they recently established a colonial outpost in the area. **On May 6, 2025:** Dozens of extremist Israeli settlers stormed Al-Mughayyir.
