India's 'generous gesture' will help continue lifesaving services towards Palestine Refugees: UNRWA
Friday, 29 December 2023 India's "generous gesture" will help the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees (UNRWA) continue its lifesaving services for Palestinian refugees, the UN agency said on Friday, a day after New Delhi released the second tranche of USD 2.5 million to the UN agency. UNRWA, functional since 1950, carries out direct relief and works programmes for registered Palestinian refugees."As we reach the end of a very difficult year in the region, UNRWA is grateful for the support of partners who continue to stand by Palestine Refugees," Tamara Alrifai, a spokesperson for UNRWA told PTI.
UNRWA’s commissioner general says attacks on the agency’s reputation were intended to strip Palestinians of refugee status, a day after independent report found Israel still hadn’t provided any evidence staff had links to terror groups.
