05 January 2026 / Ministry for Foreign Affairs Joint statement on support to UNRWA and NGOs Iceland, Ireland, Luxembourg, Malta, Norway, Slovenia and Spain condemn the latest Israeli legislation targeting UNRWA, including measures to cut water, electricity and communications to its facilities. Such actions undermine the UN mandate, violate international law and run counter to the findings of the International Court of Justice, while risking grave humanitarian consequences for the Palestinian civilian population and refugees. We also call on Israel to ensure that established international NGOs continue to be permitted to operate in Gaza and that any deregistrations be halted

Joint Statement on settlements in the Occupied West Bank

We recall that such unilateral actions, as part of a wider intensification of the settlement policies in the West Bank, not only violate international law but also risk fueling instability. They risk undermining the implementation of the Comprehensive Plan for Gaza amid efforts to progress to phase 2 and harming prospects for long term peace and security across the region
