Israeli forces raided a UN-operated training facility in occupied East Jerusalem, with far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir celebrating the operation and an Israeli flag raised over the site, according to video circulated by Al Jazeera. The raid on the UN facility drew criticism as another instance of Israeli actions targeting United Nations infrastructure in the occupied territories. The incident follows a string of confrontations between Israeli authorities and UN agencies operating in Palestinian areas, including damage to UN warehouses in Gaza reported the same day, further straining relations between Israel and the world body over humanitarian and administrative operations in the territories.
