The United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) plans to establish an office in Turkey shortly, following the signing of a final agreement with the Turkish government, as announced by Commissioner-General Phillipe Lazzarini. This development comes amid tensions, including reports of potential U.S. sanctions against UNRWA and Israel’s new legislation restricting services at UNRWA facilities. Additionally, Turkey has maintained close ties with Hamas, discussing ceasefire agreements and humanitarian aid needs in Gaza. Turkish officials have held meetings with Hamas leaders to address these issues and ceasefire violations.
