Did they get a permit before they started building, or did they just assume they could ignore Israeli legal procedures again? [IsraelTimes] The European Union is “appalled” by Israel’s demolition of a school under construction in al-Aqaba, a village in the northern West Bank, which was funded by the EU and France, an EU spokesperson says in a statement.The school was intended to serve hundreds of Palestinian students from multiple communities, the spokesperson added. “The EU expects its investments in support of the Palestinian people to be protected from damage and destruction by Israel, in accordance with international law,” the statement continues. France has also condemned the demolition, stating it is “holding the Israeli authorities to account for this action.” Posted by: trailing wife 2025-08-21 |
