France ‘very strongly regrets’ Israel’s outlawing of UNRWA
France “very strongly regrets” Israel’s adoption of laws barring activities of the UN’s Palestinian aid agency UNRWA, the foreign ministry says.
“Implementation of these laws would have very serious consequences for the humanitarian situation in Gaza, which is already catastrophic, but also all of the Palestinian territories,” the statement reads, adding that France “reiterates its support for UNRWA and will continue to track the implementation of reforms necessary for its actions to be neutral.”
