While speaking at a press conference Thursday, spokesman Ned Price said they had requested information regarding the recent closures of six Palestinian offices in the city of Ramallah.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">BREAKING \ud83d\udea8 The Israeli occupation forces raided UAWC\u2019s office early this morning 18th of August, as well as the offices of the other <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/6organizations?src=hash&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#6organizations<\/a>.
