UNRWA has dismissed 70 employees in Gaza, claiming the moves are based on safety and security assessments rather than disciplinary issues or proof of links to Hamas. Despite Israeli accusations and evidence suggesting some UNRWA staff have participated in terrorist activities,the agency maintains that these claims are unproven and has requested further evidence from Israel. Critics, including UN Watch, argue that UNRWA is deeply infiltrated by Hamas members and should be dismantled. Following a terrorist attack on October 7, 2023, Israel alleged some UNRWA workers involved in the attack, with hostages revealing they were held in UNRWA facilities. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres highlighted the agency&#8217;s financial struggles and urged for more funding, asserting that UNRWA plays a stabilizing role in a volatile environment. Meanwhile, some groups, like the Board of Peace, believe UNRWA should be phased out altogether, emphasizing the need for a shift away from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/eric-adams-stops-texas-bus-company-from-sending-more-immigrants-with-700-million-lawsuit\/\" title=\"Eric Adams has taken legal action against a Texas bus company, preventing further transportation of immigrants, through a 0 million lawsuit\">aid dependency<\/a> in Gaza.
