Guterres Highlights UNRWA’s Vital Role and Funding Gaps
The Secretary-General of the United Nations, António Guterres, affirmed that UNRWA is indispensable and cannot be replaced. He warned that its current financial crisis threatens the continuation of its services to approximately 6 million Palestinian refugees. He pointed out that a funding shortfall of around $100 million hampers the provision of essential services such as education and healthcare. Guterres also expressed concern over ongoing pressure campaigns and attacks on its facilities and staff, including the destruction of offices and illegal closures carried out by Israel. Several countries, including France, Germany, and Spain, have called for urgent support to sustain the agency’s mandate, which continues to provide humanitarian and developmental services to Palestinian refugees despite political and financial challenges.
