‘Eternal shame’: Teals urged Labor to reinstate funding to UNRWA

Sky News host Rowan Dean has criticised the teals after they urged Labor to reinstate funding to UNRWA. Extra aid will be sent to Gaza as Australia’s Foreign Minister Penny Wong lifted a funding freeze on the main UN relief agency. “UNRWA is not a terrorist organisation,” Ms Wong declared during a media conference on Friday. Ms Wong assured Australians of safeguards implemented to ensure taxpayer-funded relief was used appropriately despite allegations 12 UNRWA staffers were involved in the October 7 terrorist attacks. Mr Dean claimed Labor is “in bed with the teals” and is unfit to be in power.
