Israel’s parliament on Monday passed three bills, in their first readings, to close the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (Unrwa) and designate it a “terrorist organisation”. The bills will need to pass two more readings to become law.
In January, Israel claimed without evidence that some of Unrwa’s employees had participated in the 7 October attacks on Israel.
In February, a UN inquiry found no evidence of wrongdoing by Unrwa staff, leading the UK and others to resume funding to the agency.
