Palestinian officials have warned of serious consequences from the UN Relief and Works Agency's plan to convert about 3,000 employees in Gaza to three-month temporary contracts, Shehab Wire reported. The shift has sparked fears that workers' positions will be terminated and that UNRWA will lose capacity to serve Palestinian refugees.
The agency's move comes amid financial constraints and operational challenges in the territory following months of conflict.
