Citizens in Gaza in front of the UNRWA aid distribution center.
Two sources told Reuters news agency that an agreement between leaders in the US Congress and the White House on a draft law with a huge funding package for the army, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and a group of other government programs will continue to block US funding for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA). ) until March 2025.
In January, the administration of President Joe Biden announced the cessation of funding for the agency after Israel accused 12 of its 13,000 employees in Gaza of participating in the bloody October 7 attack launched by Hamas.[/size]
[size=45]The US Senate passed legislation last month to stop funding UNRWA, which was part of a $95 billion aid package for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan. The legislation is still awaiting approval by the House of Representatives.[/size]
[size=45]Aid advocates are trying to restore funding, and are calling on Washington to support UNRWA at a time when relief groups are working to stave off a looming famine in Gaza.[/size]
[size=45]The two sources familiar with the agreement said that funding would be frozen for a year, and that details of alternative efforts to provide humanitarian assistance to Palestinians in Gaza would be discussed after the legislation is published.[/size]
[size=45]The White House and congressional leaders refrained from commenting on the details of the agreement until the texts of the spending bills are published.[/size]
