UN Chief Urges Funding Continuation for Palestinian Refugees
UN Secretary-General António Guterres has called on countries to keep supporting UNRWA, the agency aiding Palestinian refugees, despite allegations that some staff aided Hamas.
Nine nations, including the UK, halted funding after Israel accused UNRWA employees of involvement in Hamas attacks. UNRWA provides crucial aid like healthcare and education in Gaza and other areas.
While investigations are ongoing, Guterres stresses the importance of helping vulnerable populations served by UNRWA.
Some countries will continue support, emphasizing the distinction between individual actions and the agency’s mission.
Despite challenges, aid delivery to displaced Palestinians remains a priority amid ongoing conflict in Gaza.
