Israel has accused UNRWA staff of having connections to Hamas, with allegations that 10% of its staff in Gaza are linked to terrorist activities, including 12 staff members who participated in the October 7 attacks, 1,200 staff members who are part of terrorist groups, and 3,000 teachers involved. Despite these charges, Israel has not provided the full evidence to the US for independent verification. Foreign Minister Israel Katz has been vocal, accusing the UN of cooperating with Hamas since the October 7 incident, and stating that the Palestinian Authority will not be part of the civilian government in Gaza. Katz also declared that Israel will take control of Gaza in a manner similar to the West Bank, emphasizing that American pressure will not deter IDF operations in Rafah and that the war will not end until Hamas is defeated. A petition calling for UNRWA's dissolution, citing participation of its staff in the October 7 massacre and terrorist affiliations, has gathered 60,000 signatures.
