Austria to unblock funds for UN Palestinian relief organisation
Summary by Ground News
Austria will release funds to the U.N.'s Palestinian relief organisation UNRWA that were blocked after allegations agency staff were involved in the Oct. 7 attacks on Israel. Vienna's decision comes after UNRWA set out an action plan to better ensure its impartiality, strengthen internal reviews, and improve how its staff are monitored. "After a thorough analysis of the action plan, we will release funds to UNRWA again," the Austrian foreign ministry said on Saturday.
