The Trump administration has formally declared that the United Nations Relief and Works Agency is beyond repair and must be dismantled, following months of revelations about its ties to Hamas. This decision was communicated to Congress, with the administration citing evidence that several agency employees participated in the October 2023 attacks against Israel and that aid intended for civilians has been repeatedly diverted by Hamas. Despite promises of reform from the agency, the administration maintains that its relationship with Hamas and ongoing failures to prevent aid exploitation mean it cannot continue to operate in Gaza. The United States has ceased all funding and contact with the agency and is now pushing for its complete disbandment.
