CAIRO, Sept 11 (Reuters): Palestinian Foreign Minister Riyad al-Maliki said on Tuesday the US President Donald Trump's decision to halt funding to UN Palestinian refugee agency UNRWA was an attack on international law.
"The US administration has begun to attack the Palestinian people and international law," Malki said at a meeting of the Arab League in Cairo.
Washington halted all funding to a UNRWA and Trump last week ordered that $25 million earmarked for the care of Palestinians.
