The UK boosts its foreign aid to the Palestinian Authority, Hamas and UNRWA.
At the beginning of 2018 The United States has ended funding of the United Nations-run agency UNRWA which supports "Palestinians". The announcement came a week after the Trump administration cut more than $200m in economic aid to Palestinians.
In total, the UK has now increased funding for the Palestinians from £28.5m to £45.5m after the Trump administration cut more than $200m in economic aid to Palestinians. Watch this video if you want to know how Palestinians use your aid money.
Under international law, every rocket fired by Hamas at Israel is a double war crime, one for targeting Israeli civilians, another for using Gazans as human shields (homes, mosques, schools.)
Western countries must follow Trump and cut all their foreign aid to the Palestinians.

Today I announced an additional £7 million of #UKaid for @UNRWA. This helps ensure Palestinians can continue to access vital healthcare and education. The international community must follow our lead and step up support to ensure vital services aren’t interrupted.
