The Palestinian girls’ high school named after terrorist Dalal Mughrabi is changing its name in order to receive US aid for renovations: Renaming after terrorist almost cost school US funding.
Neither USAID nor ANERA was informed after the school decided to name itself after Mughrabi. An official at ANERA confirmed the name had been changed back.
“They changed the name back. So there’s no issue anymore. The US embassy has been made aware of it,” Philip Davies, vice president of ANERA said.
