Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called for the dismantling of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) after a tunnel was discovered running under two of its schools in Gaza, said Ynetnews Monday.
Netanyahu said he spoke to US Ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley about the issue during their meeting in Jerusalem last week. "I told her that the time has come for the UN to reconsider the continued existence on UNRWA," he said.
"Since World War Two, there have been – and continue to be today – millions of refugees. And these millions have the UN High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR), while most of the Palestinian refugees are settled and have a separate commission. This is UNRWA; it has its own institutions and considerable incitement against Israel," the prime minister said.
