sorry :D
can anyone definitely say what nationality the UN officer was? I've read here and in reuters that he was Irish, but on two irish publications that he was british.
BBC World just reported that the uN official killed was actuall a British Citizen.
Reports just coming in of an explosion in Jerusalem. Situation is tense here in ramallah. Yesterday the PA evacuated all their offices in ramallah and the red cross sent in extra ambulances and medical staff, fearing that the israeli soldiers would reenter ramallah. they withdrew partially over two weeks ago and lifted night curfew for the first time since june 23. Also yesterday drone aircraft were constantly flying around the city adding to fears that we'd have tanks patroling the streets again.
See interview with Caoimhe in earlier Indymedia article: "Ijured in Jenin"
