The Netherlands has announced that it will also pause its funding to Unrwa, joining six others amid investigations into the UN body.
Dutch News reported that a spokesperson for aid minister Geoffrey van Leeuwen confirmed the decision.
On Friday, Van Leeuwen said Holland would "closely follow and weigh the outcome of the investigation when considering future Dutch financial contributions to Unrwa".
Geert Wilders, a Dutch conservative-liberal politician, posted to X against ever restoring funds, saying: "No more money to UNRWA. Never again."
