Israeli forces have demolished the former headquarters of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency in Jerusalem, marking the end of the agency's presence in the city following new legislation. The move is being framed domestically as a restoration of sovereignty and historic justice, with politicians and families of victims expressing support and linking the action to broader issues of governance and security.

The editorial emphasizes that Israel must not only assert sovereignty but also ensure competent management of essential services, transparency in aid distribution, and a credible replacement framework for humanitarian needs.
