Protesters arrested at house hearing over UNRWA funding debate
During a House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing aimed at questioning and potentially defunding UNRWA, the primary aid organisation for Palestinians in Gaza, five activists from Codepink were arrested for disruption.
The arrests occurred against the backdrop of international calls for Israel to ensure uninterrupted aid to Gaza, despite allegations against UNRWA staff. Advocates argue that defunding UNRWA threatens the survival of Palestinian civilians amidst ongoing conflict.
