Israel slashes UN funding more by $2 million over bias
Israel will cut another $2 million from its UN contribution this year in response to "anti-Israel" resolutions passed by the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC), Israel's Foreign Ministry said on Wednesday. The funds will be diverted to development projects in "friendly" countries, officials said. Israel earlier withdrew $6 million from its expected $11.7 million contribution to the UN this year.
