The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) has not sent financial aid to Gaza since Operation Protective Edge. Instead, the organization has focused on sending humanitarian aid to the region, talks between UNRWA representatives and Deputy Minister for Regional Cooperation Ayoub Kara reveal.
Kara demanded that financial aid to Gaza be suspended until further notice in exchange for humanitarian aid, while increasing inspections of materials transferred into the Strip by UN activists.
