Israeli Settlers Protest UN Agency Closure in Jerusalem as Israel Blocks Aid to Northern Gaza

TL;DR Summary
Israeli settlers and rightwing activists have protested by blocking the entrances of the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (Unrwa) office in Jerusalem, calling for its closure and accusing it of supporting terrorism. The Israeli government has accused Unrwa of collaborating with Hamas, leading to a systematic campaign of obstruction and harassment against its staff. This comes amid a dire humanitarian crisis in Gaza, with the threat of famine looming, and the Israeli government's decision to prevent Unrwa's aid deliveries in northern Gaza. The UN has condemned this move, stating that it pushes thousands closer to famine and must be revoked.
