U.S. House Votes to Defund UNRWA Amid Gaza Humanitarian Crisis

The decision, criticized for being based on unproven allegations, threatens to worsen the famine in Gaza, sparking international concern.

The U.S. House of Representatives voted to defund UNRWA, impacting 1.1 million people in Gaza amid famine threats.
Critics argue the decision is based on unproven allegations against a tiny fraction of UNRWA's staff.
Several Western countries initially suspended but have now resumed funding to UNRWA, despite the U.S. stance.
UNRWA staff allegedly faced torture by Israeli forces, raising serious human rights concerns.
The bill's passage is seen as a moral failure by many, highlighting a deepening humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
