A number of NGOs leveled heavy criticism at the Agency. THABIT Organization for Right of Return strongly condemned the decision and urged the Agency to backtrack on the new measures which it said would result in further despair for PRS.
In a statement issued on Thursday, THABIT said UNRWA should have rather increased its financial grants for Palestinian refugees in Lebanon, in light of the dire socio-economic conditions inflicted by the crash of the Lebanese pound and the dramatic price leap.
THABIT urged UNRWA to seek more donors for its annual budget in order to keep up its services for vulnerable Palestinian refugees.
The organization also urged Palestinian political factions and CSOs in Lebanon to pressurize UNRWA to cancel the new decision and save the Palestinian refugee community in Lebanon.
