Israeli-Palestinian tensions and territorial disputes

Overview

The Palestinian Presidency has escalated calls for international intervention following Israeli incursions into UN premises in Jerusalem and Qalandia. The Presidency characterized these actions as a “serious violation of international law” and a precursor to the demolition of UNRWA facilities, urging the UN Security Council to protect international institutions.

President Mahmoud Abbas later expanded his warnings, citing settlement expansion, land seizures, home demolitions, and military checkpoints as efforts to weaken Palestinian resilience. Abbas also noted that Israel is withholding over $6 billion in Palestinian funds and called for a ceasefire and the full withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza.
