WAFA reported on 27 October that the PLO Refugee Affairs Department and popular service committees, coordinating with Fatah, held a protest in Balata refugee camp against UNRWA service cuts, staff dismissals, and plans to close Qalqilya Hospital. Participants called for sustainable funding to maintain health, education, and relief services. Nisreen Thawqan, the Refugee Affairs Department’s director for the northern West Bank, said the budget shortfall was about $70 million and an additional $3 million was needed to keep Qalqilya Hospital operating; these figures are attributed to her through WAFA and were not independently verified in the report.
