URNWA in Syria will opt for urgent measures to curtail in-kind and cash aids allotted to the Palestinians of Syria.
Media sources quoted the UN agency as stating that aids will be handed over to Palestinian families worst affected by the conflict. Families with a female, elderly (aged above 60), or minor (below 18) breadwinner and families with a person with disability will benefit from the allotted aids.
The agency, in partnership with the General Commission for Palestinian Arab Refugees, will work on updating the lists of eligible families.
Concerned families are required to show up at the nearest aid distribution center to check their personal data. Text messages will be sent to the families to that end.
All concerned families will be allowed to update their data before the end of the first aid-batch and will receive their allotted aids at the soonest time possible.
Sources from the Arab Commission for Refugees said the agency will continue to secure much-needed aids to all Palestinian families in Syria in case further funds are raised for the agency.
A serious funding crunch has been wrought on UNRWA by the US decision to cut aids for Palestine refugees, forcing the agency to operate with a large shortfall over the past few months.
