"The Palestinian Authority Education Ministry on Thursday announced it was suspending ties with the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) over plans by the international agency to reform its curriculum. [...] The Palestinian ministry, in a statement published on its official website, called the possible revisions to the curriculum an "affront to the Palestinian people, its history and struggles," and said the suspension would continue until the UN agency's "positions are corrected."
