He is cautiously optimistic’ ahead of April report on staff involvement in Hamas attack
-
GENEVA - The head of the UN Palestinian refugee agency said he was cautiously optimistic some donors would start funding it again within weeks, warning it was "at risk of death" after Israel alleged that some of its staff took part in the Oct 7 Hamas attack.
An independent review of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) was launched under former French foreign minister Catherine Colonna, and her final report is expected to be published in April.
"I am cautiously optimistic that within the next few weeks, and also following the publication of Catherine Colonna's report, a number of donors will return," said UNRWA chief Philippe Lazzarini in an interview with Swiss broadcaster RTS that was aired on March 9.
