If I smash my neighbour's window because I think he is going to smash mine, who gets charged? Me or the neighbour with the broken window?
UNRWA. It's like this...

Are you mixing the terms illegal and illegitimate in this case? The Iran/Israel case I mean, with your example of your neighbours window?
Has your neighbour (with his or her still intact window) been funding your other neighbours & their guests to attack you from other directions, while also vowing to the destruction of your home, and lobbing missiles towards your backyard, etc…?
Oh wait….here!
Find another one & it’s international by definition. That’s one of those four guys, & it gets you 1/2 way there with your claim at least with this one guy.

Britain, France, the PRC, Russia, and the US.The International Commission of Jurists and some other legal scholars saw the Israeli strikes as a violation of international law.

The conflict is considered an escalation of decades-long animosity between Israel and Iran, including a proxy war, during which Iran challenged Israel's legitimacy and called for its destruction. It also follows more than a decade of international concern about Iran's nuclear program, which Israel considers an existential threat?
Is this “existential threat” the justification for self defence (?) twenty months into Israel’s fight against Iran’s proxies of Hamas and Houthis and Hezbollah and maybe some other non-state actors who’s names may start with the letter “H”? This on top of Iran’s challenging Israel's legitimacy and called for its destruction?
Who has veto power there neutering the Security Council? Whom are the (I believe) five permanent non-elected members there again?
Yeah. I live in North Central. It's exactly like what you described but I still can't smash the trap house's window because I have an agenda without consequences even if they allegedly did steal my wife's bronze hummingbird statue bird feeder thingie 25 years ago and MIGHT break my window.
But here's the thing, I didn't take my other neighbour's family owned house with a basement suite by armed force locking people in the basement suite and systematically evicting and sometimes killing the other family members who like the people in the suite own the house and property outright.
It turns out methcapades is the cousin of the family living 1447 A and 1447 B.
Now what? Cry antisemitism because I took on a gang?

Am I allowed to say its a native gang? Just because they're rowdy I can't take what's left of their land because God said so.
Oh, I bet Iran would make it two to qualify for International in this. Anyway, back to the UN & UNRWA, etc…Oh wait….here!

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres called for their "immediate and unconditional release", confirming that 11 UN personnel had been subjected to "arbitrary detentions.. by the Iranian backed Huthi de facto authorities".
UN envoy to Yemen Hans Grundberg said the detentions, carried out in Sanaa and Hodeida, came after "the forced entry into UN premises and seizure of UN property".
The Huthis were already detaining 23 UN personnel
, some since 2021 and 2023, he added. In January, the Huthi rebels detained eight UN workers.The Huthis claimed arrests made in June 2024 included "an American-Israeli spy network" operating under the cover of humanitarian organisations -- allegations emphatically rejected by the UN, etc…
A security source in Sanaa told AFP that seven WFP employees and three UNICEF workers had been arrested Sunday after their offices were raided.
The WFP statement said the "arbitrary detention of humanitarian staff is unacceptable. The safety and security of personnel is essential to carrying out life-saving humanitarian work".
Grundberg said the arrests violated "the fundamental obligation to respect and protect their (UN personnel) safety, dignity, and ability to carry out their essential work in Yemen"….but, and I’m not defending the Houthis here…were the UN personnel remaining neutral non-participants in the local goat rodeo (?) or is there more to this story?
A decade of civil war has plunged Yemen into one of the world's worst humanitarian crises, with more than half of the population relying on aid.
The arrests last year prompted the UN to limit its deployments and suspend activities in some regions of the Arabian Peninsula's poorest country.
On Saturday, a Yemeni security source told AFP that Huthi authorities had arrested dozens of people in Sanaa and other areas "on suspicion of collaborating with Israel".
It came after Israel's strike on Thursday that killed the Iran-backed group’s prime minister, Ahmed Ghaleb Nasser al-Rahawi, along with other officials.

The United Nations said Yemen's Huthis detained at least 11 workers on Sunday in raids on UN premises, after rebel authorities made numerous arrests following Israel's killing of their prime minister.
