The Israeli occupation authorities extended the closure order of several Jerusalemite institutions including the Orient House.

A statement issued by the Orient House on Monday said: “These days mark the eleventh anniversary of the closure of the headquarters of Orient House and the Arab Studies Society in Jerusalem, in addition to a number of other Jerusalemite institutions, under a decision issued by the occupation government.”

“There is no indication of re-opening these headquarters, so that they can resume their services in Jerusalem, which lacks lots of necessities that these organizations had been providing for the citizens despite the difficult circumstances they are facing”, the statement added.
