US Senator defends Unrwa and says Israel’s claims are ‘flat-out lies’

‘Netanyahu has wanted to get rid of Unrwa since at least 2017’

US Senator Chris Von Hollen emphasised on CBS on Sunday during an interview with Face the Nation. He added that it would be a “huge mistake” to cut off funding for Unrwa in Gaza as it is the primary distribution system for food and aid.

‘’Flat out Lies ‘’ they think they can fool everyone but there’s honest human being who will point out their lies .If they are lying this much is sign of desperation and weakness.

Thank you Senator for standing up for the TRUTH and FACTS!!! You provide a ray of hope to the suffering Gazans. My fervent prayer is that you would be able influence your colleagues in the US to act justly and uphold truth in their foreign policy.
