Israel‘s UN Ambassador Danny Dannon announced that his country has severed cooperation with the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA).

“Following the passing of the Law on UNRWA, we officially informed the President of the General Assembly of the termination of cooperation with the organization,” said Dannon.

“Despite the overwhelming evidence we submitted to the UN highlighting how Hamas infiltrated UNRWA, the UN has done nothing to address this reality,” the diplomat said in a statement.

“Israel will continue to cooperate with humanitarian organizations but not with organizations that support terrorism against the state of Israel,” he continued.

A week ago, the Israeli parliament passed two laws banning UNRWA from operating and prohibiting Israeli authorities from contacting the UN agency, which is the main provider of aid to Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

Israel said several UNRWA employees were linked to Hamas.

UNRWA chief Philippe Lazzarini warned that the move effectively undermines the agency’s efforts to provide aid to Palestinian refugees. (Ant/Z-6)
