Quick Glance: UNRWA Report Highlights Lack of Evidence for Israel's Employee Militancy Claims
- An independent review commissioned by the United Nations found that Israel has not provided evidence to support its accusation that a 'significant' number of employees of the U.N. relief agency for Palestinian refugees in the Gaza Strip are members of terrorist organizations.
- The review, led by former French foreign minister Catherine Colonna, revealed that UNRWA 'plays an indispensable and irreplaceable role in the region,' despite issues such as employees expressing political views and offices being used for 'political or military purposes'.
- The review listed recommendations to enhance UNRWA operations, including improved training, more rigorous employee screening, and a thorough review of all textbooks and supplements.
- Concerns were raised regarding the screening of UNRWA employees and the content of textbooks, while Israel has yet to provide evidence to support the claim that a significant number of UNRWA employees are members of terrorist organizations.

Quick Glance: ByteDance Would Consider Closing TikTok in US Over Sale, Sources Claim
- ByteDance would prefer to cease TikTok operations rather than engage in a sale if all legal avenues are exhausted to combat potential legislation banning the platform in US app stores, as per four sources.

- ByteDance stated on Thursday in a release on Toutiao, a media platform it possesses, that there are no intentions to sell TikTok, in response to claims from The Information about ByteDance exploring sale scenarios for TikTok's US operations excluding the recommending algorithm for user videos.
- As of December, ByteDance's valuation stood at $268 billion when it proposed a buyback of approximately $5 billion in shares from investors.

Quick Glance: San Francisco's Real Estate Market in Turmoil
- The city of San Francisco, once seen as the shining star of the West Coast, is now on the verge of collapse, with seemingly no one raising the alarm.
