On International Human Rights Day, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) urges the international community to stand up for the human rights of Palestine refugees as enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and turn their commitment into action to support them as per the Agency’s mandate. UNRWA Commissioner-General Philip Lazzarini said: “Palestine refugees must not be forgotten, especially in the middle of a global health pandemic that turned into an acute socio-economic pandemic. The Palestine refugee community, consisting of over 5.7 million children, women, and men, who have already been living in dire conditions for decades, is being hit unimaginably hard. This is a time of solidarity and support.” To check the news, click here
