UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres sent a letter Tuesday to Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu protesting a new law that could effectively cripple the UN agency for Palestinian refugees. In the letter, seen by AFP, Mr Guterres said the law could have “devastating consequences” for Palestinians in Gaza and the occupied West Bank as there was no reasonable alternative to UNRWA for providing aid and assistance to the enclave.
