From Reuters:

Elon Musk's cost-cutting team is finalizing the dismantlement of the U.S. Agency for International Development, ordering the firings of thousands of local workers and American diplomats and civil servants assigned to the agency overseas, two former top USAID officials and a source with knowledge of the situation said on Tuesday.

USAID will be shut down completely by September, with some of its functions to be absorbed by the State Department, headed by Marco Rubio.
