Israel sent names, military IDs of 'terrorist operatives' working for UNRWA

Israel's Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced that the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) is employing 100 terrorist operatives and directly asked the organization to terminate the staffers immediately.

In the July 4 letter, which was obtained by Fox News Digital, Ambassador Amir Weissbrod wrote that the presence of Hamas terrorists in UNRWA has been a "recurring concern" for Israeli officials.

"However, the full scope of this unprecedented infiltration was unknown and became clear only after the October 7th terrorist attack on Israel, in which, as you know, UNRWA employees actively participated," Weissbrod said.

"In recent months Israel has discovered that hundreds of terrorists, members of Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) have been employed by UNRWA in the Gaza Strip, some of them holding high-ranking positions in UNRWA or in Hamas."

The ambassador added that the intent of his letter was to share "some additional information on this matter," and proceeded to identify the employees associated with Hamas.

"Please find attached a document containing 100 names and IDs of terrorist operatives who are currently employed by UNRWA-Gaza," Weissbrod wrote. "This list includes their military IDs as well."

The official added that the list contains a "small fraction" of terrorist operatives employed by UNRWA, and that the names of more employees will be sent in the future.

Dismissal?!?!?

How about jail time, or worse if warranted?

Asking for their dismissal? They are aiding an enemy combatant in a war zone. They should be neutralized right alongside their Hamas brethren.

this sounds like a good step forward, though I would simply ban the UnitedNazis from entry and be done with it

For from being fired, these 100 employees will probably get promotions and bonuses. The UN is hopelessly in love with third-world terrorists.

So does Hamas work for the UN, or the other way around?

UNWRA is one of the major programs of the United Nations. Does that make the UN an armed combatant against the State of Israel?

Should a portion of the community of nations split from the UN and develop an independent international structure that would give proper consideration to these countries needs?
