One of the sources, a person with direct knowledge of the peace board’s operations, said that out of ten countries who pledged funds, only three — the United Arab Emirates, Morocco, and the US itself — had contributed funding.
The source said funding so far was under $1 billion, but did not give more details. The Iran war “has affected everything,” exacerbating previous funding difficulties, the source said.
The second source, a Palestinian official familiar with the matter, said the board informed Hamas and other Palestinian factions that the National Committee for the Administration of Gaza (NCAG) is unable to enter Gaza right now due to a lack of funding.
“No money is currently available,” the official cited board envoy Nickolay Mladenovas as informing Palestinian groups. –Agencies
