UNRWA may fund Jenin war crimes memorial: This news comes from a Palestinian newspaper, The Jerusalem Times, May 16:

Palestinians have designated Jenin camp as the site of their 2002 Palestinian Nakba "disaster" memorial. Residents of the camp, the Emergency Committee for Relief and Reconstruction and UNRWA have agreed in principle to build a public memorial site within the framework of camp reconstruction in order to commemorate Palestinian victims and raise awareness amongst the international community about Israeli war crimes. The precise location and design of this public memorial will be debated and clarified within the next two-three months.
