Following the adoption of two bills by Israel’s parliament on 28 October 2024, UNRWA is threatened with having to cease its operations (humanitarian, medical and educational) in the West Bank and Gaza by the end of the year. At a time when the conflict in Gaza has already claimed tens of thousands of victims, no other humanitarian organisation or authority can take on UNRWA's tasks in Gaza. Hindering the agency's work jeopardises the entire aid operation for Palestinian victims in Gaza, as all other organisations (UN and international and national NGOs) use UNRWA's logistical and administrative systems.
