UNRWA said the Agency is committed to fulfilling its mission in support of Palestine refugees in Gaza, including those who fled war-torn Syria, despite considerable challenges and pressures.

UNRWA added that a six-month job will be secured for underprivileged families in the Israeli-blockaded enclave starting August 1 as a way to compensate for the freeze of rental allowances, as recommended by the ad hoc committee.
