Many countries, including the US, Britain, Germany, and Japan, have suspended their UNRWA funding after Israel accused some of its employees of being involved with Hamas in Operation Al-Aqsa flood on October 7, 2023.

“There is no way any organization can replace or substitute the tremendous capacity and the fabric of UNRWA and its ability and knowledge,” Kaag told correspondents.

Additionally, to remedy the situation, UN Secretary-General António Guterres met with the donor countries to "guarantee the continuity" of UNRWA’s work in war-torn Gaza.
