The United Nations has dismissed additional staff from its agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, following an internal investigation into their possible involvement in the Hamas-led October 7 attack against Israel. The UN Secretary-General’s office made this announcement, but details on the staffers' roles or the evidence remain undisclosed. This follows previous actions where UNRWA fired 12 and suspended seven staffers. The total number dismissed is unclear. Israel’s allegations led to a temporary funding suspension by donor countries, causing a significant cash crunch for UNRWA. Despite resuming funding, Israel continues to call for suspending aid, accusing UNRWA of links to Hamas.
