"UNRWA Funding and Alleged Staff Involvement in Gaza Attacks: Israel's Revelations and Funding Freezes"
TL;DR Summary
Several countries, including the US, Germany, and the EU, have suspended funding to the UNRWA following allegations by Israel, leaving the agency facing a $440m shortfall. However, Ireland, Belgium, Norway, Saudi Arabia, Spain, and Turkey are among the countries continuing to support the UNRWA, with Ireland pledging 20 million euros. The historical Irish struggle for independence has fostered a strong affinity for the Palestinian people, leading to ongoing support for their humanitarian needs.
