Israel this week shared with the Washington Free Beacon and other news outlets a declassified intelligence dossier detailing how the U.N. Palestinian refugee agency has allegedly been compromised by Hamas. About 10 percent of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency’s some 12,000 workers in Gaza are Hamas or Islamic Jihad “operatives,” according to the document, and at least 13 participated in Hamas’s Oct. 7 terror attack in southern Israel.
“UNRWA is a front for Hamas,” Israeli government spokesman Eylon Levy said during a briefing on Tuesday that marked the 116th day of the war in Gaza.
The dossier—based on signals intelligence, interrogations of Hamas terrorists, and documents recovered in Gaza—was part of an Israeli briefing of U.S. officials that convinced Washington and others to suspend funding to UNRWA. U.S. secretary of state Antony Blinken on Monday called the findings “highly, highly credible.” Linda Thomas-Greenfield, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, on Tuesday welcomed the world body’s announced investigation of UNRWA. She said the United States would need to see “fundamental changes” to the agency before any resumption of funding.
