Board of Peace Says UNRWA Has No Place in New Gaza

The U.S.-led Gaza Board of Peace said UNRWA has no place in the new Gaza, responding to a U.S. Mission to the UN appeal that member states fund the Board instead of UNRWA. JPost, Israel National News, Kikar and Al Bawaba report the statement came as UN officials warned UNRWA faced a funding crisis and needed another $100 million, while the Board said Gaza's people deserve an end to perpetual aid dependency and conflict. The statement fits Israel's long campaign to replace UNRWA with accountable post-Hamas institutions. A Gaza rebuilding plan must serve civilians, not preserve an agency Israel and allies say enabled incitement, terror and diplomatic stagnation.
