"UK Demands Assurance on UNRWA Allegations Before Funding Resumes"

UK Foreign Secretary David Cameron seeks an "absolute guarantee" from the UN Palestinian refugee agency (UNWRA) that it will not employ staff involved in attacks on Israel, following allegations that some employees were linked to the October 7 violence. The UK, along with the US, has temporarily paused funding for UNWRA pending the results of the UN's internal investigation into the allegations, with Cameron emphasizing the need for a swift resolution due to the vital aid distribution role UNWRA plays in Gaza.
