The report issued by OCHA also warned that an imminent Israeli demolition of a Palestinian residential building – consisting of 12 housing units and based in the Wadi Qaddum neighborhood of Silwan – will leave 74 Palestinians homeless, including 42 children.
The site on which the building is located has been designated by the Israeli authorities as an open green space, which will be used as a public garden.
The UN agency said it aims to prevent the demolition through engagement with relevant authorities, adding that it stands ready to support those displaced if the demolition goes ahead.
