Slovenia on Monday condemned Israel’s unauthorized entry into the compound of the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in East Jerusalem, calling the move a violation of international law.
“Slovenia strongly condemns the forced entry of Israeli authorities into the UNRWA compound in East Jerusalem, the seizure of property and the removal of the UN flag,” the Foreign Ministry said in a statement posted on X.
The ministry said such actions breach the inviolability of UN premises and international legal obligations, urging Israel to respect international law and ensure the safety of UN personnel.
Slovenia currently holds the rotating presidency of the UN Security Council and officially recognized Palestinian statehood in June 2024.
