UN, Backed by US DOJ, Seeks Immunity for UNRWA Employees Involved in October 7 Massacre
Sep 22, 2024, 04:14 AM
The United Nations (UN), with support from the US Department of Justice, is seeking diplomatic immunity for its UNRWA employees involved in the October 7 massacre. An official document was filed in a US court to argue for this immunity. Reports indicate that at least 12 UNRWA employees participated directly in the massacre, with 108 UNRWA employees identified as active members of Hamas and Islamic Jihad. According to Channel 12, the move has sparked outrage and calls for defunding UNRWA, as critics argue that the organization has become closely intertwined with terrorist groups. The massacre included the killing of an Israeli civilian.
