Israel has officially informed the United Nations of its decision to terminate its agreement with the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), declaring a 1967 pact recognizing the agency as void. This move, which has long been desired by Israeli officials, is seen as potentially disastrous for Gaza amidst warnings of impending famine. The Israeli government claims the agency has ties to terrorism, particularly following the involvement of UNRWA employees in recent attacks. International reactions have been a mix of concern and criticism, with U.S. officials urging Israel to reconsider its stance as fears grow over the consequences of this ban on the millions reliant on UNRWA for aid. As Israeli airstrikes continue in the region, the implications of this decision could further exacerbate the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
