UNRWA cuts draw protests
UNRWA employees and residents protested in Nuseirat camp in central Gaza, opposing job cuts and salary reductions. They warned that the measures would harm workers’ livelihoods and reduce services for refugees. The protests come amid a financial and operational crisis facing the agency, with a projected shortfall of around $100 million. UNRWA employs about 10,500 people in Gaza and 4,500 in the occupied West Bank. Officials warned that cuts to staff or services would threaten humanitarian operations, as Israeli legislation banning the agency’s activities is due to take effect in early 2025.
