Israel announced it will sever all ties with the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA), citing security concerns. Israeli envoy Danny Danon declared, "Israel will terminate all collaboration, communication, and contact with UNRWA or anyone acting on its behalf." The statement was made ahead of a United Nations Security Council meeting on the matter. Israel has long accused UNRWA of undermining its security by allegedly supporting anti-Israel activities. The move raises questions about the future of Palestinian refugee aid amidst ongoing tensions in the region.
