The head of the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) has told Aljazeera that his organisation is on the verge of financial collapse.
Philippe Lazzarini is warning that UNRWA can no longer meet the growing needs of migrants in Lebanon as the organisation has a deficit of $60m.
Lebanon has already been reeling from an economic crisis but the hundreds of thousands of Palestinian refugees there - many of whom lack basic rights - are certain to bear the brunt.
Al Jazeera’s Zeina Khodr reports from Beirut, Lebanon.
