UNRWA is set to close its East Jerusalem headquarters temporarily, after attacks by Israelis accompanied with armed men. UNRWA Commissioner-General, Philippe Lazzarini, said the latest arson attack was one of a series of threats, harassment and violent incidents perpetrated by Israelis against the agency’s staff over the past two months. The attacks on UNRWA and the lack of accountability reflects the systematic approach to halt and delegitimize attempts to relieve Palestinians from their suffering.
● Almighty creator, we are witnessing the capabilities of evil and are aware of their dangers. Lord, ensure that UNRWA can continue working and aiding Palestinians who are continuously suffering from systematic sin. We plead that you remind us that you are love and whoever lives in love lives in you, and you in us. We pray for those living in hate to repent and join the work of love by struggling for Palestinian liberation.
Lord in your mercy… hear our prayer
