The correct answer is Option C: USD 2.5 million. India announced a USD 2.5 million contribution to United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East on 11 June 2026 as the first tranche of its annual assistance. India’s annual contribution to UNRWA stands at USD 5 million, released in two equal tranches of USD 2.5 million each. UNRWA was established in 1949 by the United Nations General Assembly to support Palestinian refugees. UNRWA provides education, healthcare, relief, and social services to Palestine refugees in Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, the West Bank, and the Gaza Strip. Between October 2023 and November 2024, India supplied approximately 135 metric tonnes of humanitarian aid to Palestine in four consignments. India had contributed a cumulative USD 35 million to UNRWA for its core programmes and services up to 2023–24. India continues to support a two-state solution for resolving the Israel–Palestine conflict through peaceful negotiations. India’s humanitarian assistance to Palestine included 81.5 metric tonnes of medicines and medical supplies based on specific requirements communicated by UNRWA.
