UN chief to meet donor nations after refugee agency accusations

UNITED NATIONS, Jan 30: United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres will meet Tuesday with key donors to the UN agency for Palestinian refugees after 12 of its staff were accused by Israel of involvement in the October 7 attacks, his spokesman said.
Several countries, including the United States, France, Britain, Germany and Japan, have announced the suspension of further funding to the agency.
"The secretary-general is personally horrified by the accusations against employees of UNRWA," Guterress spokesman Stephane Dujarric said Monday.    —AFP
