"UNRWA Replacement Plans Challenged Amid Gaza Aid Scandal"
TL;DR Summary
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has announced the start of a process to replace the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), which provides services to 5.9 million Palestinian refugees. This comes after Israel provided the UN with data alleging staff involvement in a massacre and connections to Hamas. Over 16 countries have temporarily suspended funding to UNRWA pending the results of investigations, and Israel is seeking to transfer the agency's services to other organizations while also asking the UN to broaden its investigation.
