The New York Times has actually admitted that Hamas documents uncovered by Israel show that senior school administrators at the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) were members of Hamas’ military wing.
Israel seized these detailed records kept by Qassam Brigades, which is Hamas’ military wing, and shared them with the far-left, anti-Israel New York Times, forcing them to admit to the truth: at least 24 people employed by the anti-Israel UNRWA in their schools are confirmed members of Hamas or Islamic Jihad.
“The agency, which employs roughly 13,000 people, including thousands in the schools, has a duty to maintain the neutrality of its facilities in the conflict zones in which it operates, including by keeping militants off its premises and payrolls,” the outlet reported.
“A majority were top administrators at the schools — principals or deputy principals — and the rest were school counselors and teachers, the documents say,” the New York Times added. “Almost all of the Hamas-linked educators, according to the records, were fighters in the Qassam Brigades.”

“Names and identification numbers listed on the seized documents match those in a separate UNRWA database,” the report continued. “The documents also list two schools in particular that were to be used as redoubts where fighters could hide and stash weapons in a conflict. … In several cases, educators remained employed by UNRWA even after Israel provided written warnings that they were militants. … Residents of Gaza said in interviews that the idea that Hamas had operatives in UNRWA schools was an open secret.”
Amir Weissbrod, the Deputy Director General for UN and International Organizations, spoke out about the UN’s desperate efforts to downplay the numerous reports about the organization being infiltrated by Hamas.
“The U.N. seems intent on portraying this problem as a few bad apples, rather than acknowledging that the tree is rotten,” Weissbrod declared.
Israeli officials have reported that at least 100 UNRWA employees have been identified as Hamas militants, and even former UNRWA employees have admitted that the reports are true.
James Lindsay, who served as UNRWA’s general counsel until 2007, has stated: “The U.N. has been unable and or unwilling to eliminate Hamas militants and their supporters, as well as those from other terrorist groups, from their ranks. UNRWA hiring practices and the makeup of the labor pool from which UNRWA draws its employees suggests to me that the numbers the Israelis are talking about are probably pretty close to the truth.”
UNRWA has even used its money — much of which comes from the United States — to help train terrorists for ISIS, according to a 2016 report from Fox News. “The documentary, ‘The UNRWA Road to Terror: Palestinian Classroom Incitement,’ shows children as young as 7 in schools run by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) expressing support for terrorism. One clip shows a 13-year-old Palestinian student chanting ‘With Allah’s help I will fight for ISIS, the Islamic State,’” the outlet reported.
It has also been confirmed that UNRWA employees participated in the horrific October 7 Hamas massacre in Israel.

In 2018, the Trump administration announced that it would be withholding funding from UNRWA over the organization’s terrorism ties, but President Joe Biden reinstated that funding upon taking office.
