Hamas warns of the dangerous American-Israeli plan to disband UNRWA Basim Naim, head of the Hamas movement's Arab and Islamic Relations Office, warned of the consequences of the plan to fire more than 7,000 UNRWA workers in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. He added that the financial crisis, with the support of the US, has been used as a tool to pressure and dismantle UNRWA since the beginning, because this agency plays the role of a political and legal witness on the rights of Palestinian refugees, especially the right of return. A senior Hamas official emphasized that the issue of refugees is one of the most prominent challenges facing Israel's colonial project, as approximately 7 million Palestinians live abroad, in addition to millions of Palestinians within historic Palestine who insist on their right to return to the homes from which they were displaced.
