The Trump administration has placed around 60 USAID officials on leave amid a sweeping foreign aid review.
The move follows Trump’s executive order halting most foreign aid for 90 days, citing potential policy violations.
Critics claim it suppresses dissent, as exemptions for Ukraine-related programs were reportedly denied.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio exempted only emergency food aid and military support for Israel and Egypt.
The decision has triggered program shutdowns and staff layoffs globally, intensifying scrutiny over US foreign aid policies.

Israelis express growing concerns that the ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas, mediated by the U.S., Egypt, and Qatar, may collapse soon. Despite reaching an agreement after 15 months of conflict, fears arise that Hamas could break the terms of the deal, particularly over prisoner releases. Israelis are deeply apprehensive about the future of the ceasefire, with some speculating that Hamas may resume attacks. These concerns persist despite optimism over the release of hostages and humanitarian aid provisions. Tensions remain high, and many Israelis are uncertain if the deal will hold or if further violence will erupt.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has raised concerns over the Israel-Hamas ceasefire agreement, claiming that Hamas has violated key terms of the deal. The agreement, brokered with mediation by the United States, Egypt, and Qatar, was intended to halt hostilities, facilitate prisoner exchanges, and allow humanitarian aid into Gaza. However, Netanyahu's office accused Hamas of creating a "last-minute crisis" by reneging on commitments, including vetoing the release of Palestinian prisoners convicted of murder.
