West Bank UNRWA – HUMANITARIAN NEEDS AND RESPONSE – 2019 October 2018 UNRWA West Bank – Humanitarian needs and Response – 2019 October 2018 The impact of the Israeli military occupation of the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, continues to impact Palestine refugees: continuous Israeli security force operations throughout the West Bank, including in and around camps – exposing Palestinian refugees and non-refugees alike to the risk of injury and death, and an increasingly coercive environment for those living in Area C and East Jerusalem – with restrictions imposed by the Government of Israel on access Jenin to land and property.
