Congress Seeks to Bar Funding for U.N. Agency for Palestinians


US Congress plans to cut funding to UN agency for Palestinians, creating a shortfall and risking a humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The move follows accusations of agency members' involvement in attacks, leading to suspension of funding through 2025. US allies seek to restore funding, while the White House hopes for reform before reconsidering support. Other UN agencies and relief organizations are being considered as alternatives, but concerns remain about their capacity to provide aid amid the ongoing conflict. European nations are seeking reassurances and reforms from UNRWA before restoring funding.
