ReutersJan 31, 2025 9:58 AM
GENEVA, Jan 31 (Reuters) - The U.N. Palestinian relief agency UNRWA said on Friday that if its humanitarian work in Gaza is forced to halt, it would put a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas at risk.
"If UNRWA is not allowed to continue to bring and distribute supplies, then the fate of this very fragile ceasefire is going to be at risk and is going to be in jeopardy," Juliette Touma, director of communications of UNRWA, told a Geneva press briefing.
For now its work in Gaza and elsewhere continues despite an Israeli ban that was due to take effect on Jan. 30, she added.
