The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) announced on Tuesday that UN member states have paid about $966 million in response to the UN's flash appeal for Gaza and the West Bank. This amount represents about 81% of the required response, which is $1.2 billion. In November, the UN and its partners launched a flash appeal to implement its response plan to support 2.2 million people in the Gaza Strip and half a million people in the occupied West Bank. These donations are allocated to the sectors of food, health, security, shelter, education, protection, coordination, and others. Source: Jordan News Agency
