UN chief warns UNRWA at crisis point
The United Nations called on the international community to bridge a funding gap of $100 million for the UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), which is facing near collapse due to a lack of funding and austerity measures. Secretary-General António Guterres noted that the agency is under severe pressure due to restrictions in the Palestinian territories and declining funding, following the withdrawal of support from the United States and Sweden amid allegations concerning its staff and smear campaigns. The agency’s services have been cut by 20%, and salaries for some employees have been frozen, threatening its ability to continue providing aid to approximately 2.6 million Palestinians.
