Arab Aid to UN Palestinian Refugee Agency Continues to Decline

(Xinhua-China) Annual Arab financial aid to the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) declined to 3% of UNRWA's budget in 2022, Adnan Abu Hasna, the media advisor of UNRWA in Gaza, said Saturday. In 2018, Arab financial support to the agency reached $200 million, while in 2021 it declined to $20 million. Abu Hasna said that during all the previous Arab summits, the Arab League agreed that Arab support for the UN agency should not be less than 7.5%, "but today we have seen it decline to 3%...this is a big problem."
