The international community should bring back the United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) to effectively end starvation in Gaza, which has become a recurring crisis due to inadequate funding and lack of resources. Created in 1949, UNRWA is still the only UN agency dedicated solely to the welfare of Palestinian refugees. Reviving the organization would provide much-needed support to alleviate poverty and hunger among Gaza's population. The move could also help to address the humanitarian situation in the besieged territory.
