Hamas has criticized the Board of Peace over its refusal to work with UNRWA, the United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees, in Gaza, accusing the body of aligning itself with Israel by excluding the agency from operations in the territory.
The criticism reflects ongoing tensions over the role of UNRWA in Gaza, an agency that has faced scrutiny and restrictions from Israel even as it has historically served as one of the primary providers of humanitarian assistance to Palestinians in the territory.
Hamas's statement suggests concern that sidelining UNRWA could affect the delivery of aid and services to Gaza's population, though specific details of the Board of Peace's stated reasons for excluding the agency were not outlined in the available information.
The dispute adds to a broader and long-running debate over UNRWA's role and standing amid the conflict, with the agency's future involvement in Gaza remaining a contentious issue among the parties involved.
