UK pauses funding to UN company over claims workers had been concerned in Hamas assault
The UK will briefly pause funding to the UN’s aid company in Gaza over claims members had been concerned in Hamas’ assault on Israel.
The United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) stated on Friday it sacked "several" workers over accusations by Israel that 12 workers had been concerned within the 7 October assault.
In the wake of the allegations, the Foreign Office says it’s "temporarily pausing any future funding of UNRWA whilst we review these concerning allegations".
The UK’s resolution comes after the US, Italy, Australia and Canada additionally suspended extra funding for the UN help company.
