UNRWA plans to scale back its services and lay off thousands of employees across its five fields of operation because of the financial crisis. Estimates suggest that more than 6,000 employees could be at risk of losing their jobs. There are warnings that the measures could weaken the agency’s role and pave the way for education, health and relief services to be transferred to local organizations or host countries. In Gaza, the staff union says salary deductions have reduced pay by around 20%, leaving employees with roughly 55% of their salaries—or about $600 a month. Meanwhile, UNRWA’s hospital in Qalqilya faces the risk of closure after its services were cut back. Officials and representatives of employees and refugees warn that cuts to staff and services will harm millions of refugees and threaten the agency’s continued operations.
