At the United Nations, UN Watch Executive Director Hillel Neuer responded on the record to a series of diplomats who described UNRWA as “indispensable”:

“𝘞𝘦 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘢𝘵 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘵 14 𝘜𝘕𝘙𝘞𝘈 𝘦𝘮𝘱𝘭𝘰𝘺𝘦𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘰𝘰𝘬 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘏∗𝘮𝘢𝘴 𝘢𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘤𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘦𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘖𝘤𝘵𝘰𝘣𝘦𝘳 7. 𝘜𝘕𝘙𝘞𝘈 𝘥𝘦𝘧𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘊𝘩𝘳𝘪𝘴 𝘝𝘢𝘯 𝘏𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘯, 𝘈𝘖𝘊, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘒𝘦𝘯 𝘙𝘰𝘵𝘩 𝘴𝘢𝘺 𝘪𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘢 𝘧𝘦𝘸 𝘣𝘢𝘥 𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘴. 𝘐𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘦?”

Neuer then cited figures that UNRWA has spent the past two years trying to keep out of the spotlight:

450 UNRWA employees are Hamas and Islamic Jihad operatives.

3,000 UNRWA teachers were in a Telegram chat that celebrated October 7.

8,000 UNRWA staff went on strike to reinstate a Hamas Politburo member (Suheil Al-Hindi) after he was suspended for his role in the terror group.

The strike shut down 243 Gazan schools and abandoned 220,000 students.

Last year UN Watch exposed UNRWA teacher Riyad Nimr for glorifying a massacre of Jewish worshippers in a synagogue. The entire UNRWA staff union in Lebanon went on strike to support him.

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) has become a major enabler of terrorism against Israel and should be dismantled without delay.
