Only 12 countries, including Israel and the United States, voted against it, while 19 nations abstained from voting.
The vote follows an October advisory opinion from the International Court of Justice outlining Israel’s legal obligations as an occupying power.
Norway’s UN representative cited recent attacks, including entry into UNRWA facilities, as evidence that civilians face extreme hardship.
UNRWA officials and Palestinian leaders welcomed the resolution, while the US criticized it as unfairly targeting Israel’s actions.
