New footage released by Israel Police shows Palestinians throwing stones from the roof of a building during this week's evacuation of an UNRWA compound near Qalandia, providing additional context to an incident in which five Palestinians were wounded by gunfire.

The incident occurred Tuesday during an operation at the UNRWA-run Qalandia Training Centre in Kafr Aqab, near the Qalandia refugee camp.

According to police, Border Police officers, IDF forces and Jerusalem District police were securing the evacuation of the compound when a group on the roof began throwing heavy stones toward security personnel below.

Police said the stone-throwing created an immediate danger to the forces, prompting Border Police officers to open fire. Five people on the roof were wounded, according to the police account. Newly released police footage shows individuals on the rooftop throwing objects toward the forces below.

The footage comes after Palestinian reports focused on those wounded during the operation. WAFA reported Tuesday that several journalists were injured while covering the takeover of the UNRWA facility, although that report did not establish that the individuals shown throwing stones in the newly released police footage were journalists.

The broader operation began Tuesday when Israeli authorities entered and took control of the Qalandia Training Centre. Israeli officials said the action was being carried out pursuant to legislation barring UNRWA operations in Israeli territory. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he had ordered the evacuation of the compound in accordance with the law.

UNRWA strongly disputed the move, describing the entry into the facility as unauthorized and arguing that the compound is protected as a United Nations facility under international law. Israeli authorities maintain that UNRWA does not own the property and that the site will instead be used for schools and other community facilities serving residents of Kafr Aqab.

The newly released footage adds another piece of evidence to the competing accounts surrounding the violence during the operation.
