The Israeli Knesset passed a bill making it illegal for Israeli officials to contact UNRWA, effectively dismantling the agency's ability to operate in Palestine.
The new laws will prevent UNRWA from conducting any activities within Israel's borders, severely impacting aid distribution to Palestinian refugees in Gaza and the West Bank.
UNRWA provides critical services such as education, healthcare, and social services to Palestinian refugees, essential for their quality of life amid ongoing conflicts.
International condemnation has followed the Knesset's actions, with several countries previously cutting funding to UNRWA amid allegations against its staff regarding recent attacks.
