Estonia becomes the latest country to suspend funding of UNRWA this week in light of evidence that staffers participated in the October 7 atrocities.

“Concerning the recent very serious allegations against UNRWA, Estonia will not continue with the funding of the organization,” Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna states on X, formerly Twitter.

He also calls for a “quick and in-depth investigation” of the allegations.
