White House wants to see 'progress' before restoring Unrwa funding

The White House said on Tuesday that it would have to "have to see real progress" before considering reinstating the funding it previously halted for the UN agency assisting Palestinians (Unrwa).

"In terms of our funding of Unrwa, that is still suspended. We're gonna have to see real progress here before that gets changed," said National Security Council spokesman John Kirby.
