Finland will resume funding to the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, the country’s Foreign Trade and Development Minister said on Friday. Several countries, including the US and UK, paused funding to UNRWA after accusations by Israel that a small number of the agency’s 13,000 staff in Gaza took part in the October 7 attack on Israel. “UNRWA improving its risk management, meaning preventing and initiating close monitoring for misconduct, provides sufficient guarantees for us at this point to continue our support,” Ville Tavio said.
