Germany becomes latest EU member state to pull funding from UNRWA
Germany announces that it is suspending funding to UNRWA over allegations of staff involvement in the October 7 terror onslaught in southern Israel.
It is the latest of several European Union countries to pull funding after Italy, the Netherlands and Finland announced that they were doing the same. The EU as a whole has not decided to suspend funding, however.
