Gazan staffer says IDF releases interrogation with UNRWA worker in Gaza describing how terror group operatives took over UNRWA facilities and vehicles and looted aid meant for civilians for their personal use

The IDF Spokesperson’s Unit on Thursday released a video clip from the interrogation of a Gazan staffer of the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees UNRWA who described how Hamas used the organization’s facilities as their own. "They see UNRWA vehicles as a form of protection,” he said.

    Funny enough, I would find this very believable if the claim had come from anyone except the IDF.

    Funny what cratering your own credibility does.

      Same. I wouldn’t put this past Hamas at all, but I’m going to need another source.

      Also, maybe the IDF shouldn’t have, you know, drove a fucking Merkava Mk 4 through the main gate of the compound and wrecked the UN base’s physical security? Just a thought.

        Wasn’t that near the Israel-Lebanon border? Those are blue helmet soldiers coming from many nations to observe that the border is not crossed.
        UNRWA is a civil organization largely staffed by Palestinians to provide necessities like food and schools to the Palestinians.

        Let’s not mix up the crimes Israel commits.
