In December, we received representations from Pierre Krähenbühl, UNRWA’s Commissioner General, and Jamie McGoldrick, the local UN Humanitarian Coordinator who thanked the UK for our support in reducing UNRWA’s unprecedented financial shortfall. We will continue working with UNRWA and other donors to help ensure its essential services are maintained.
