UNRWA claims it doesn't have enough resources
UNRWA says there are 65 thousand displaced Palestinians since yesterday in #Gaza and UNRWA doesn't have enough resources

You will recall that last Wednesday, the IDF urged 100,000 'Palestinians' to flee Northern Gaza (only about 20,000 actually fled; many others stayed because Hamas urged them to stay and be human shields). One can only wonder what would have happened if all 100,000 had fled.
I guess UNRWA's $1.4 billion biannual budget doesn't go as far as it used to. Maybe Qatar and Turkey can come up with some more money for them. After Hamas brought on this war, I'd be surprised to see the Saudis, the Europeans or the US bail them out.
In fact, after this story, why would anyone give money to UNRWA?
