The @UN General Assembly has given a strong endorsement to the ruling by the International Court of Justice. @UNLazzarini

@UNRWA being infiltrated by Hamas are not substantiated, nor are allegations that UNRWA is not a neutral organisation.

This vote is an important sign of support for UNRWA from the overwhelming majority of the international community.  As the

@CIJ_ICJ stressed, UNRWA is the key humanitarian actor in the occupied Palestinian territory, & everything must be done to facilitate our work, not hinder or prevent it.

I urge Member States to continue supporting our efforts to respond to the dire humanitarian conditions in Gaza & expand

our critical public health and education services.
