4 and 14 July 1967, respectively, concerning measures and actions
by Israel affecting the status of the City of Jerusalem,
Having heard the statements of the parties concerned on the

change the status of the City of Jerusalem;

are invalid and cannot change that status;

all measures taken by it which may tend to change the status of the

to have such an effect;
