The decision from nine different countries, including Canada, the U.S. and Germany, came following allegations from Israel that several UNRWA members were involved in the fatal Oct. 7 Hamas attacks in Israel — which left more than 1,200 dead and roughly 240 people taken hostage.
Regarding the allegations, Guterres said that the world organization will hold to account /”any UN employee involved in acts of terror,/” but that the UNRWA /”should not be penalized/” amid Israel’s ongoing conflict with Gaza.
The dire needs of the desperate populations they serve must be met,” the UN chief wrote in a statement.
As of Friday, more than 26,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza following the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks.
