Times Of Israel: Sweden says it will stop funding UNRWA, will increase Gaza aid to other agencies
Sweden says it will stop funding UNRWA, will increase Gaza aid to other agencies
Sweden has ceased funding the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, and plans to redirect aid to Gaza through other organizations. This decision follows an Israeli ban and concerns over UNRWA's alleged ties to terrorism, particularly after recent violent events involving Hamas.

Israel has long criticized UNRWA for perpetuating the Palestinian refugee crisis and claims a significant portion of its staff has connections to terror groups. The Knesset's recent ban on UNRWA's operations reflects growing frustration, while UN officials maintain that the agency is essential for humanitarian aid in the region.

UK car production plummets to 44-year low amid 'enormous strain' on major brands - 'Disastrous'
UK car manufacturing faced its steepest November decline in over 40 years, with production dropping by 30.1% year-on-year, marking the ninth consecutive month of decline. Just 64,216 cars were produced, significantly impacted by strategic shifts towards electric vehicles and weakening global markets.

Domestic production plummeted by 56.7%, while exports saw a 21.3% decrease. Year-to-date figures reveal a 12.9% decline, with output nearly 500,000 units below 2019 levels. Industry leaders call for government support to ease the transition to new technologies and address market regulations.
