The Palestinian ministry of education in Gaza has reiterated its rejection of all curriculum changes made by the UNRWA in its schools.

“We have informed the UNRWA that we refuse the changes it has made to its school curriculums in the Gaza Strip” head of the educational sector Kamal Abu Aoun stated in press remarks on Thursday.

The local news agency al-Ray quoted Abu Aoun as saying that he met with head of the UNRWA education program Farid Abu Adira and called for necessarily reversing the changes made to schoolbooks.

He denied news reports talking that the ministry in Gaza suspended its contacts with the agency in protest at the curriculum changes.
