<p>Allegations that UNRWA staff were involved in the events that took place on 7 October
in Israel are appalling, which is why we took decisive action to pause future funding
to the organisation.</p><p>The Prime Minister has been clear that the UK will set
out its position on future funding to UNRWA following careful consideration of Catherine
Colonna's final report, UNRWA's response and the ongoing UN Office for Internal Oversight
Services investigation into these allegations.</p><p>The UK is playing a leadership
role in alleviating the suffering in Gaza. We more than trebled our aid commitment
last financial year, to over £100 million, and we are doing everything we can to get
more aid in as quickly as possible by land, sea and air.</p>
