🇺🇸 🇻🇪 🇺🇳 🗨️ "The Secretary-General is deeply alarmed by the recent escalation in #Venezuela, culminating with today’s United States military action in the country, which has potential worrying implications for the region. Independently of the situation in Venezuela, these developments constitute a dangerous precedent. The Secretary-General continues to emphasize the importance of full respect—by all—of international law, including the #UN Charter."

🇺🇳 Statement by #UN Secretary-General Guterres:
"I strongly condemn today's unauthorized entry into the UN Sheikh Jarrah compound held by #UNWRA in #OccupiedEastJerusalem by Israeli authorities.
This compound is inviolable & immune from any other form of interference.
I urge #Israel to immediately take all necessary steps to restore, preserve & uphold the inviolability of UNRWA premises & to refrain from taking any further action with regard to these premises."
