U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres appointed an independent panel led by the Foreign Minister of France Catherine Colonna to review the global body’s Palestinian refugee agency (UNRWA) after Israel’s accusations.
More than a dozen countries, including the U.S., Germany, Britain and Sweden, suspended funds to the UNRWA after Israel claimed that 12 staff members took part in the Hamas attack on Oct. 7.
Israel’s accusations came only a day after the International Court of Justice (ICJ) called on Tel Aviv to prevent genocide in Gaza.
The court said Israel must ensure its forces do not commit genocide and take measures to improve the humanitarian situation.
