EU to delay part of 82 mln euro payment to UNRWA - sources

The European Commission will give the U.N. Palestinian refugee agency (UNRWA) only part of a planned 82 million euro payment now due to concerns raised by Israeli accusations that 12 staff were involved in the Oct.7 attack, people familiar with the matter told Reuters on Friday.

The Commission is expected to make an official announcement at around 1130 GMT, the sources said. They said the Commission planned to make the payment in installments over time, rather than with a single lump sum.
