The Israeli threat is more present than ever over Rafah, the last city in Gaza to have avoided massacres and massive destruction by the ongoing military offensive.
Germany, despite accusations from Israel against the United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA), has announced the resumption of its aid, affirming its trust in the agency.
Although Benyamin Netanyahu accused the UNRWA of being infiltrated by Hamas, a report from independent experts led by Catherine Colonna, former French Foreign Minister, refuted most Israeli accusations.
The United States remains unconvinced and has frozen its UNRWA contribution until 2025, while it has approved new massive military aid for Israel.
Conclusion: The political neutrality of the UNRWA has been questioned, but the agency remains vital. The attacks against the UNRWA, especially considering Gaza's critical situation, reflect an irresponsible scorched earth policy. Instead, a political perspective that replaces the uncertainty caused by war should be sought.
