Humanitarian assistance to Gaza will stop after February: Unrwa

Following western attempts to throttle humanitarian aid to Gaza, Unrwa has warned that the body will run out of money by February. 

“If the funding is not resumed, Unrwa will not be able to continue its services and operations across the region, including in Gaza, beyond the end of February,” a spokesperson for the agency said.

A number of countries - including the US, Germany and Britain - have paused funding to the aid agency in the wake of unproven allegations that 12 Unrwa staff were involved in the 7 October assault by Hamas in southern Israel.
