The US decision to withdraw from UNRWA leaves several million Palestinian refugees without schools and basic welfare. This is deeply worrying and risks further tension in a region torn by conflict. The int community, incl EU members, must urgently find additional financing.

Another example of violence outside proportionality in the Arab-Israeli Conflict. The desperation among people in Gaza cannot be managed by adding to their burden. They need hope for a normal life more than anyone else. https://t.co/qlkb5QeexW

UN chief @antonioguterres calls for investigation into deadly clashes along Israel-Gaza border; Security Council convenes emergency meeting. https://t.co/DCcuPfyHED

[Margot Wallström @margotwallstrom]

Deeply concerning events & tragic loss of life at Gaza border. Sweden & other UNSC members urges actors to avoid escalation. Echo SG @antonioguterres’s call for investigation. This shows urgent need for a resumed peace process for a two-state solution, backed by all UNSC members. https://t.co/o01VPPTXSJ

We are shocked by the attack in Alexandria today. Our thoughts go to the victims, their families and to all Alexandrians. Violence feeds fear, frustration and further violence. Alexandria, Egypt and the MENA region is in need of the opposite.

Worrying developments between Syria and Israel. Urge all to respect int'l law, show restraint & avoid actions that further escalate the situation. Must urgently refocus efforts to end the conflict in Syria, where the UN-led political process remains the only viable path.

Sweden hosts an informal meeting on Yemen today together with key European partners. Important discussions on a conflict which has lead to the world’s worst ongoing humanitarian disasters. The EU has an important role to play.
