Israeli lawmakers have passed two laws threatening the main U.N. aid agency’s operations in Gaza, possibly severing ties and hindering aid distribution. The laws, intended to prevent the U.N. agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, from operating in Israel and diplomatically isolate it, have raised international concerns over the humanitarian impact on Palestinians. Israel’s allegations of UNRWA staff involvement with Hamas has led to decreased funding and heightened tensions. UNRWA’s chief has warned of deepening suffering for Palestinians, particularly in Gaza, where millions remain displaced and facing critical shortages. The new laws, pending implementation, would significantly limit UNRWA’s assistance in the region, prompting strong opposition from international aid groups and Western allies.
