UNRWA, the UN agency for “Palestinian refugees”, on Saturday praised Saudi Arabia for transferring $50 million it had pledged to the agency in November.
UNRWA Commissioner-General Pierre Krahenbuhl in a statement “expressed his deep recognition and gratitude for the disbursement of this remarkable financial support, which comes in fulfilment of the pledge made by King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud, the Custodian of The Two Holy Mosques, during the Arab Summit in April this year.”
