"U.S. Suspends UNRWA Funding Due to Staffers' Ties to Oct. 7 Terror Attacks"

The United States has suspended funding to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) following allegations that 12 of its employees were involved in Hamas terror attacks in Israel on October 7. The Biden administration is taking the allegations seriously and has temporarily paused additional funding while reviewing the situation. UNRWA has terminated several employees in response to new information provided by Israel, and the House Foreign Affairs Committee is set to hold a hearing on UNRWA's ties to Hamas and the attacks.
