Former Israeli Foreign Minister, Noga Arbell issued call to destroy UN agency that is providing aids to Palestinian refugees. In a footage shared by Israeli media, she was seen as saying, “it will not be possible to win the war if we do not destroy UNRWA. And this destruction must begin immediately”.
She was seen in Israeli Parliament group, who are also holding on to the same opinion about ending the global funding on UNRWA, claiming it to be a tool of Hamas, as reported by Israel Hayom newspaper.
In her X (formerly twitter), Arbell claimed the United Nations agency to be a “terror supporting organization, illegally operating under the aegis of the UN”.
Really?
Calling for the closure of a terror supporting organization, illegally operating under the aegis of the UN,
which has indoctrinated generations to thinking their lives only meaning is to ethnically cleanse the Middle East of it Jews,
THATS ETHNIC CLEANSING?

UNRWA is a UN Agency for Palestinian Refugees, which has been still functioning in the war battered Gaza enclave, where around 85 percentage of its total population are displaced and desperate for food, water and medicine. From the 1.9 million displaced Palestinians, nearly 1.4 million of the internally displaced Gazans are sheltering in 155 UNRWA facilities across the Strip, and these facilities are “far exceeding their intended capacity”.
Meanwhile, heavy rain and winter has made the situation in Gaza even more unbearable. The Jabalia refugee camp, the densely populated camp which has been targeted by the Israeli occupation force multiple times, was flooded with sewage water as the heavy rains pour down and the municipality services are shut down. The sewage water seeped into the camp that still shelters thousands of the displaced Palestinians.
The municipality workers cannot act in as they were targeted by the Israelis. The occupation force also prevented solar panel to be brought to the camp, which is urgent for the operating of the desperately needed generators, as reported by Al Jazeera.
