Israel will seek to stop the UN agency for Palestinian refugees from operating in Gaza after the war, its foreign minister said Saturday, after Israel accused several UNRWA staff of involvement in Hamas's October 7 attack.

The foreign ministry aims to ensure "that UNRWA will not be a part of the day after," Foreign Minister Israel Katz said on X, formerly Twitter, adding that he would try to gather support from the US, EU and other major donors to the agency.
