Gaza, 11 Rabi’ul Akhir 1436/1 February 2015 (MINA) – The government committee to break the siege on Gaza described UN Middle East envoy Robert Serry’s remarks about UNRWA’s decision to stop its financial aid as political statements par excellence.
Serry’s statements came in total violation of the UN institution’s humanitarian role, the committee said, The palestinian Information Center (PIC) quoted by Mi’raj Islamic News Agency (MINA) as reporting.
Earlier, Serry said that donor countries refused to transfer the funds for the reconstruction due to the absence of a government in Gaza.
