UNRWA Threatens to Close Schools and Health Centers Without New Funding

The United Nations agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) is facing a severe financial crisis threatening its operations in several territories, notably in Gaza, the West Bank, Jordan, and Lebanon.

According to Nathalie Boucly, UNRWA’s Deputy Commissioner-General, without securing new funding, the agency may be forced to close some of the schools and health centers it manages. This situation arises as the reconstruction of Gaza remains central to international diplomatic discussions.

UNRWA, which plays a crucial role in assisting Palestinian refugees, is intensifying efforts to secure funds to continue its essential activities in the region.
