<p>The UK has pledged £764 million to support the global humanitarian response to
COVID-19. We have delivered additional vital support in the Occupied Palestinian Territories
by providing £840,000 to WHO and UNICEF to purchase and co-ordinate the delivery of medical
equipment, treat critical care patients, train frontline public health personnel and
scale up laboratory testing capacity.</p><p>All UK funding to the OPTs is subject
to robust controls against fraud and the diversion of aid, and DFID’s funding agreements
also commit partners to understand and comply with UK and international counter terrorism
legislation. We maintain regular dialogue with all implementing partners to ensure
UK funding is spent as intended.</p>
