On Friday, a group of 15 UN and humanitarian groups released a statement warning that Israel is aiming to wipe out all Palestinians left in north Gaza. Gaza officials have estimated that roughly 100,000 people are left in north Gaza, trapped by Israel’s brutal ground invasion.

The UN agency for supporting Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) said on Monday that Israel's ban on its operations would lead to the "collapse" of humanitarian work in the Gaza Strip.

The Biden administration is stepping up criticism of Israel for not doing enough to improve humanitarian conditions in Gaza as a 30-day deadline looms for Israeli officials to meet certain requirements or risk potential restrictions on military assistance.

The head of the United Nations Work and Relief Agency for Palestine said in a Tuesday letter to the U.N. General Assembly that Israeli legislation against UNRWA will have a catastrophic impact in Gaza.

Israel's decision to ban the U.N. relief agency UNRWA could result in the deaths of more children and represent a form of collective punishment for Gazans if fully implemented, U.N. agencies said on Tuesday.

Israel's parliament has passed bills banning the U.N. agency for Palestinian refugees from operating in Israel and the Palestinian territories.

Israel has long sought to discredit the U.N. agency, viewing its existence and operations as supporting Palestinians’ position on the right of return.

With a consequential presidential election in days, President Joe Biden faces a difficult task after pigeonholing his administration into blind support for Israel.
