Palestinian ministry welcomes Sweden and Canada's decision to resume Unrwa funding

The Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs welcomed on Sunday Sweden and Canada's decision to resume funding to the UN aid agency Unrwa. 

In a statement posted on X, the ministry said that reinstating funding is  necessary for "securing a lifeline for Palestinian refugees".

"Israel's longstanding systematic campaign, propaganda and state-sponsored attacks on UNRWA and incitement against UN employees must be rejected and confronted by the international community," the statement added.
