UNRWA is irreplaceable. It’s not just an aid agency. It provides education, healthcare, social services and protection for Palestinian refugees. @UNRWA promotes human development, dignity and rights until a just and durable solution is found. We must support & protect it.
António Guterres
If implemented, the laws adopted today by the Knesset of Israel would likely prevent @UNRWA from continuing its essential work in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, with devastating consequences for Palestine refugees. I call on Israel to act consistently with its obligations under the Charter of the @UN & international law. National legislation cannot alter those obligations. I am bringing this matter to the attention of the UN General Assembly, and will keep the Assembly closely informed as the situation develops. There is no alternative to UNRWA.
