UN Palestinian aid agency narrows funding gap after Trump exit

The UN agency for Palestinian refugees has almost closed a funding gap caused by the loss of $300 million in US contributions, its chief said on Tuesday.

 

The Trump administration pulled the bulk of US funding of the UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) in January after a UN General Assembly vote rejected Washington's recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital.
