Gaza Peace Council Warns of UNRWA's End
The article discusses the nearing end of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees (UNRWA)'s role in the Gaza Strip, where the agency's Commissioner-General warned of the consequences this would have on the population and essential services. Despite talks of reducing the agency's role, UNRWA still provides vital services to nearly half of Gaza's residents in the fields of health and education, and it remains one of the largest employers in the area. Lazarini pointed out the contradiction between calls to shut down the agency and the expectations of member states that it will continue its missions, warning that removing its role would have direct impacts on the population, especially given the restrictions on aid entry.
