Israel votes to ban UN aid agency, Palestinians say 100,000 residents trapped
JERUSALEM/CAIRO - Israel 's parliament passed a law on Monday to ban the UN relief agency UNRWA from operating inside the country, alarming some of Israel 's Western allies who fear it will worsen the already dire humanitarian situation in Gaza.
"UNRWA workers involved in terrorist activities against Israel must be held accountable," Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said. The vote came the same day Israeli tanks thrust deeper into northern Gaza, trapping 100,000 civilians, the Palestinian emergency service said, in what Israel's military said were operations to eliminate regrouping Hamas militants.
The Gaza Strip's health ministry said at least 19 people were killed by Israeli airstrikes and bombardment on Monday.
