The Palestinian Information Centre reports escalating anger among Palestinian communities in Lebanon over UNRWA’s recent actions perceived as attacks on Palestinian identity. These include the removal of “Palestine” from educational materials and a ban on national symbols in UNRWA institutions. Hamas’s Popular Action Department condemned these measures as part of a systematic campaign to erase Palestinian national awareness from younger generations. The actions involve banning the map of Palestine, national symbols, and imposing penalties for expressions of national identity.
