 According to Al Jazeera TV, Ahmad Aboul-Gheit condemned the consequences of provocative actions against the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) and warned against cuts in financial assistance to UNRWA from some Western countries. On Sunday, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres asked world governments to continue supporting financial assistance from the UN Work Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) in view of the ongoing catastrophic situation in the Gaza Strip due to ongoing attacks by Zionist forces. mode. Following allegations that some UNRWA staff were involved in Zionist regime attacks on the Gaza Strip from 7 October 2023 to the present, the UN Secretary-General vowed to bring to justice all UN staff involved in terrorist attacks. According to the Palestine Information Center, the continued work of the UN Employment Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) is needed now more than ever in the midst of war. Under pressure from the Zionist regime, UNRWA terminated the contracts and cooperation of a number of its employees in the Gaza Strip. Philippe Lazzarini, commissioner general of the UN Agency for Palestine Refugees Employment, warned that the suspension of UNRWA financial assistance and the subsequent suspension of the international agency's services to Palestinian refugees in the harsh conditions of war will worsen the situation of Palestinians, who need help more than ever. Despite international requests and efforts to establish a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, the Zionists continue their attacks on the Palestinian people. Since October 7, 2023, with the full support of Western countries, especially the United States and Britain, the Zionist regime began massacres in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank against the defenseless and oppressed people of Palestine, and the complete silence of the international community and human rights communities in the face of the crimes of the Zionist regime led to the continued killing of women and Palestinian children by the illegitimate military Zionist regime. For almost 4 months, the Zionist regime, using the most advanced weapons, including fighter jets, drones, tanks and various modern types of missiles and bombs, most of which were made by European countries and the United States, has been attacking the Gaza Strip. The Zionist regime has killed 26 thousand 422 residents of the Gaza Strip and injured more than 6 5 thousand 87 since the beginning of the Zionist regime's attacks on the Gaza Strip, 70% of whom are women and children.
