AMMAN, Jordan — When Israel and Hamas signed a ceasefire earlier this year, it brought into question the fate of militias Israel cultivated during the devastating two-year war as an alternative ruling force in Gaza. Many expected that Hamas — still the dominant force in the Strip — would hunt them down.

The legislation was the latest blow to the agency, known as UNRWA. Israel has accused it of being extensively infiltrated by Hamas.

Several countries at the United Nations questioned whether the move aimed to relocate Palestinians from Gaza or to establish military bases.

Requests among staff at multinational companies operating in Israel rose in reaction to Israel's war against Hamas, the report said.

A Palestinian attacker rammed his car into a man and then stabbed a young woman in northern Israel on Friday afternoon, killing both, police said. The Israeli military swiftly launched an operation in the assailant's hometown in the occupied West Bank.

Two Israelis were killed in terrorist attacks in Israel on Friday, as officials accused the Palestinian Authority of misleading the world about its active terror payment policy.
