UNRWA Restores Health Care and Classrooms Across Gaza

A new ICJ order backing UN-led aid deepens the dispute over access.

Overview

  • UNRWA says three new clinics have opened in Gaza City along with a medical center in Jabalia.
  • The agency reports seven central clinics and 35 medical points now serving about 15,000 patients per day.
  • UNRWA says schooling has been rehabilitated for roughly 300,000 students, with 50,000 back in classrooms at 124 sites.
  • Israeli officials allege some UNRWA staff took part in the Oct. 7 attacks, while the Colonna review found neutrality lapses but reported no evidence of widespread terrorist affiliation.
  • The ICJ ordered Israel to facilitate UN-led aid into Gaza, a decision criticized by Israel and the United States, as USAID also alleges the UN obstructed a U.S. probe into UNRWA staff ties to Hamas.
