According to Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, his nation is part of a core group preparing a resolution that, among other things, calls for "Israel's" expulsion from the United Nations General Assembly due to human rights breaches and genocidal crimes.

The PM informed Malaysia's parliament on Monday that the draft resolution is being negotiated and would be presented to the UN General Assembly for approval "soon."

"Strong measures, including Israel's removal from the United Nations following Israel's human rights violations and genocidal crimes, must be enforced as soon as possible," he underlined.

He also explained that Malaysia will make sure this matter is properly given attention so the Israeli occupation can end its atrocities, therefore allowing the entrance of critical aid to the Palestinian people" at a time when the massacre continues to worsen."

According to Anwar Ibrahim, once passed, the resolution will provide a legal foundation for the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) to continue delivering essential services such as education, health care, and humanitarian relief.

'Israel' tells UN it is severing ties with UNRWA after ban

The Israeli occupation regime formally announced on Monday that it had cut ties with the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), which provides aid to Palestinian refugees, following a parliamentary decision to ban the agency.

The Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed the notification to the UN, stating it was acting on instructions from Foreign Minister Israel Katz.

"UNRWA, the organization whose employees participated in the October 7 massacre and many of whose employees are Hamas operatives, is part of the problem in the Gaza Strip and not part of the solution," Katz claimed, reiterating baseless claims about the UN agency. 

"Israel" has frequently demanded that UNRWA be dismantled and its responsibilities moved to other UN organizations.

The bill has upset the United Nations and some of "Israel's" Western allies who believe it would exacerbate the already grave humanitarian situation in Gaza, where "Israel" has ruthlessly and repeatedly bombed civilians for the last year.

The decision to sever ties comes after the Israeli parliament voted last month to end UNRWA's operations in the occupied Palestinian territories and occupied east al-Quds, which has drawn criticism from the international community, even the United States.
