Israel Bans UN Palestinian Refugee Agency UNRWA, Raising Concerns Over Gaza Impact

This decision restricts UNRWA’s ability to provide essential services to Palestinian refugees, especially in Gaza, where the agency has long been a critical lifeline for food, healthcare, and education. According to a report by Reuters, this move could have severe consequences for Gaza’s already vulnerable population, further complicating an already tense situation in the region
