EUPOL COPPS’ role in supporting the Palestinian Civil Police (PCP) is more relevant than ever against the backdrop of an increasingly dramatic situation in the region.
Within this context, the Mission’s leader, Karin Limdal, and her homologue, the Chief of the Palestinian police, Major General Allam Al-Saqqa, paid a visit to the West Bank city of Nablus to assess the needs of the police to highlight priority areas for support, on 24 September.
During the visit, pressing needs including the renovation of the PCP buildings in the city and shortage of vehicles were identified.
While in Nablus EUPOL COPPS’ HoM also visited the district’s correction and rehabilitation centre established back in 1994 and refurbished in 2020.
