UNRWA dismisses 70 Gaza staff over Hamas links
UNRWA has fired 70 staff members in Gaza amid allegations from Israeli authorities that the agency is linked to Hamas, which the agency denies. The decision was made to address security concerns, with UNRWA claiming it has requested evidence from Israel but received no response. An investigation by USAID found that some UNRWA employees were involved in Hamas activities, including participating in terrorist attacks, highlighting longstanding accusations of Hamas exploitation of UNRWA facilities and personnel. Israeli officials and critics argue that UNRWA's ties to Hamas undermine its neutrality, while UNRWA maintains it relies on cooperation with member states to operate safely in Gaza.
