Israel Officially informs UN of end of Relations with Palestine Relief Agency Over Hamas Ties

An agency of the United Nations, with money taken from U.S. taxpayers has been helping the Hamas/Nazis in Gaza.  UNRWA officials have been caught holding Israeli hostages.  They have been feeding Hamas troops—and educating Palestinian children to hate Jews.

“Israel has officially notified the United Nations that it was canceling the agreement that regulated its relations with the main UN relief organization for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) since 1967, the country’s foreign ministry said on Monday.

Last month, the Israeli parliament passed legislation banning UNRWA from operating in Israel and stopping Israeli authorities from cooperating with the organization, which provides aid and education services to Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza.”

Maybe President Trump will stop funding the UN and its terrorist supporting agencies?

Israel Officially informs UN of end of Relations with Palestine Relief Agency Over Hamas Ties

Israel has officially notified the United Nations that it was canceling the agreement that regulated its relations with the main UN relief organization for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) since 1967, the country’s foreign ministry said on Monday.

Last month, the Israeli parliament passed legislation banning UNRWA from operating in Israel and stopping Israeli authorities from cooperating with the organization, which provides aid and education services to Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza.

Israel has long been critical of UNRWA, accusing it of anti-Israel bias and saying it perpetuates the conflict by maintaining Palestinians in a permanent refugee status. Palestinian refugees are unique in that they pass their status to descendants, regardless of their age and country of residency, a practice Israel claims fuels demands for a “right of return.” The return of over 5 million Palestinians to Israel would destroy the Jewish state by demographic means, critics argue.

Since the start of the Gaza war in October last year, Israel has also said that UNRWA has been deeply infiltrated by Hamas in Gaza, accusing some of its staff of taking part in the Oct. 7 massacre across southern Israel. The Israeli government and research organizations have publicized findings showing numerous UNRWA-employed teachers were directly involved in the attack, while many others openly celebrated it.

The legislation has alarmed the United Nations and some of Israel‘s Western allies who fear it will further worsen the humanitarian situation in Gaza, where Israel has been fighting Hamas terrorists for a year. The ban does not refer to operations in the Palestinian territories or elsewhere.

Experts have noted that textbooks supplied by UNRWA promote antisemitism and hatred of Israel.

Israel‘s UN Ambassador Danny Danon said in a statement that despite the overwhelming evidence “we submitted to the UN highlighting how Hamas infiltrated UNRWA, the UN did nothing to address this reality.”

The legislation does not directly outlaw UNRWA’s operations in the West Bank and Gaza, but it will impact its ability to work in those areas.

The Israeli foreign ministry said activity by other international organizations would be expanded and “preparations will be made to end the connection with UNRWA and to boost alternatives to UNRWA.”
