Qatar has announced on Wednesday a $50 million donation to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) in support of basic services for the Palestinian refugees.
This came after signing a memorandum of understanding by Commissioner-General of UNRWA Pierre Krähenbühl and Director General of the Qatar Fund for Development Khalifa bin Jassim al-Kuwari in Doha.
The UNRWA’s statement asserted that the Qatari donation is very important as it protects Palestinians’ right to basic education services in 2018.
