Blinken calls on countries to do more to help Palestinians in Gaza
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has announced more than $400m in humanitarian assistance to Palestinians at the conference in Jordan as he called for other donors to also step up.
“Only one-third of the current UN appeal is funded. That leaves a shortfall of approximately $2.3bn. Every country can help fill this gap … Some have expressed great concern over the suffering of Palestinian people in Gaza, including in countries with the capacity to give a lot, [but they] have provided very little or nothing at all,” he said.
“It is time for everyone to step up. For those who have already given and given generously – give more.”
