India has contributed USD 2.5 million to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA). India is a dedicated donor to UNRWA and donated USD 20 million in support of core UNRWA services to Palestine refugees across the Middle East since 2018.
The UNRWA was established as a humanitarian agency in 1949. This agency is fully funded through voluntary contributions and grants from donor countries.
