Germany's ambassador to Israel, Steffen Seibert, and other diplomats condemned a raid by Israeli police on the Educational Bookshop, a crucial cultural hub in East Jerusalem owned by the Muna family. The bookstore was raided under allegations of "violating public order," with police confiscating hundreds of books, particularly those related to Palestinian themes. Both Seibert and UN special rapporteur Francesca Albanese emphasized the importance of the bookstore in resisting Palestinian erasure and called for international support for the Muna family and their storied establishment.
I, like many diplomats, enjoy browsing for books at Educational Bookshop. The Muna family are peace-loving proud Palestinian Jerusalemites, open for discussion and intellectual exchange.
Shocked by Israeli forces' raid on East Jerusalem's Educational Bookshop, an intellectual lighthouse... Internationals in Jerusalem: please show up, stand with the Muna family.
