A one-day strike by UNRWA's 13,000 employees in the Gaza Strip closed schools, clinics and food distribution centres on Monday (January 29) in response to plans by the United States to withhold some of its aid for the U.N. agency that serves the Palestinians. Waving Palestinian flags and banners reading "Dignity is priceless", U.N. Relief and Welfare Agency staff held a protest march to U.N. headquarters in Gaza City.
