Qatar has pledged $100 million to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) to aid in alleviating the humanitarian crisis resulting from the ongoing Gaza genocide.

The funding aims to provide essential services and support to the Palestinian population affected by the Israeli apartheid regime's invasion. This financial commitment underscores Qatar's ongoing efforts to alleviate the suffering of those impacted by the ongoing conflict.

The UNRWA has been a crucial provider of assistance to Palestinian refugees, offering education, healthcare, and social services. Amid the escalating humanitarian crisis in Gaza, this funding is expected to bolster the agency's capacity to meet the urgent needs of the population.

Qatar's donation comes at a time when the Gaza health ministry reports increasing casualties and devastation due to the ongoing genocide. The international community has been called upon to respond adequately to the crisis and support humanitarian initiatives.

Despite the urgent need for humanitarian assistance, the Israeli apartheid regime has continually obstructed efforts for a ceasefire, further exacerbating the plight of the Palestinian people. Qatar's financial support is a critical step in addressing the immediate needs of those suffering in Gaza.
