Trump to Halt UNRWA Funding on Day of Netanyahu Meeting

President Donald Trump is expected to withdraw the United States from the United Nations Human Rights Council and put a halt to funding for the U.N. Relief and Works Agency on Tuesday, the same day he’s meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House, Politico reported Monday.

Trump’s executive order would reinstate policies that were in place under his first administration eight years ago. Trump moved the signing of the executive order to Tuesday from Monday, according to the report.

The U.S. has accused the HRC of “consistent bias” against Israel, while the UNRWA has been linked to the Hamas terrorists, with Israel — not the U.N. — outing several agency staffers also being members of the Gazan terrorist outfit. Former President Joe Biden paused funding to UNRWA after the agency fired members it confirmed were involved in the Oct. 7, 2021, attacks and slaughter of 1,200 Jews inside Israel.
