Over 100 Israeli plaintiffs have filed a lawsuit against the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) and its senior officials.

Filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, the lawsuit accuses UNRWA and its leadership of aiding and abetting Hamas in the 7 October Attack.

The lawsuit, spanning over 150 pages of detailed factual allegations, outlines how UNRWA officials, including senior directors based in New York City, allegedly facilitated Hamas in carrying out what plaintiffs describe as genocidal acts against Israeli civilians.

The plaintiffs, non-U.S. citizens who were victims or survivors of the attack, argue that UNRWA's actions were crucial in enabling Hamas to perpetrate these atrocities.

Central to the allegations is the claim that UNRWA officials in New York played a significant role over a decade in funneling over one billion U.S. dollars in cash into Gaza. Instead of aiding civilians in need, the lawsuit contends that these funds were diverted to Hamas terrorists, supporting their weapons procurement and infrastructure. The plaintiffs argue that UNRWA knowingly provided material support to Hamas, including access to UNRWA facilities for military purposes and using schools to indoctrinate children into a culture of violence. ...

More than 100 victims of the October 7 terror attacks are suing UNRWA for “aiding and abetting” Hamas.

A lawsuit filed in New York today claims UNRWA – the UN organisation which oversees Palestinians – “helped Hamas build up the terror infrastructure and personal that were necessary to carry out the October 7 attack”.

The $1billion lawsuit represents 101 plaintiffs including hostages, Nova festival survivors and families of people who were murdered. It claims UNRWA knew some of its personnel were members of Hamas, that its personnel had taken part in the October 7 massacre and had held Israeli people hostage. It also claims that UNRWA helped radicalise a Palestinian population into supporting terror against Israel through its text books.

While many of the claims have been made by Israel over several years, the lawsuit alleges for the first time that by paying UNRWA staff in cash in American dollars, it had put $1billion of the currency into circulation which enabled Hamas to buy weapons which were used against Israel and also benefitted the terrorist group who took a percentage of money changing. ...
