Israel cuts ties with UNRWA refugee agency
The Israeli occupation regime has formally notified the United Nations of its decision to end relations with the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), terminating the agreement that has governed the agency’s relief operations in Gaza and the West Bank since 1967.

The Israeli Foreign Ministry conveyed this decision through its representative to the UN, citing allegations that UNRWA "serves terrorism" as the reason for the break. The Israeli government, however, stated that it remains committed to working with other humanitarian organizations that do not pose security concerns.
In response, UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini warned that dismantling the agency without a suitable alternative would have severe consequences, particularly for Palestinian children who depend on UNRWA’s education services. Lazzarini stressed that the priority should be on ending the current hostilities rather than restricting UNRWA’s operations or exploring alternatives.
This decision marks a significant shift in Israel's stance towards UNRWA, raising concerns about the future of humanitarian aid and educational support for Palestinian refugees in the region. (ILKHA)
