UN concerned after Israel refuses to grant staff visas
RAMALLAH: The UN has expressed concern about an Israeli decision to refuse entry visas to its staff.
The organization warned that that the move may affect humanitarian work in Palestine and the ability of the humanitarian community to support Palestinians.
UN spokesman Stephane Dujarric said that the decision significantly impacts the humanitarian community’s ability to support Palestinians.
“We are, of course, still in contact with the Israeli authorities on this matter, and we hope it will be resolved,” Dujarric said.
