All served in the 926th Engineer Brigade based out of Fort Moore, Ga.
Who exactly are these @UNRWA workers that took part in October 7?
Seven were teachers at UNRWA schools and two others worked at the schools in other capacities. The other three were a clerk, a social worker and a storeroom manager.
What exactly did they do? Per the @nytimes:
"The most detailed accusations in the dossier concerned a school counselor from Khan Younis who is accused of working with his son to abduct a woman from Israel.
Another social worker is accused of helping to bring the body of a dead Israeli soldier to Gaza, as well as distributing ammunition and coordinating vehicles on the day of the attack.
Three others got text messages ordering them to report to muster points on Oct. 7, and one was told to bring rocket-propelled grenades stored at his home.
Another was described as taking part in the massacre at a kibbutz where 97 people died."
This is only the tip of the iceberg as these are just the ones that have rock-solid evidence that can be corroborated enough for the NY Times. It also doesn't take into account the system-wide antisemitc Jew-hate that UNRWA teaches children from age 0.
BREAKING: The “few bad apples” line pushed by the UN has just been obliterated. The Wall Street Journal front page is reporting that an estimated 1,200 Unrwa employees in Gaza are actual “operatives” of Hamas or Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and about half have close relatives who belong to the Islamist terrorist organizations, according to Israeli intelligence estimates shared with the U.S. government.
The report said 23% of Unrwa’s male employees—the agency has a total staff of 12,000 in Gaza—took active part in the Hamas organization’s military or political framework, a higher percentage than the average of 15% for adult males in Gaza.
The information in the Israeli intelligence reports is based on sensitive signals intelligence as well as cellphone tracking data, interrogations of captured Hamas gunmen and documents recovered from dead terrorists.
Nearly half of all Unrwa employees—an estimated 49%—also had close relatives with official ties to Hamas and other terrorist groups.
The Oct. 7 intelligence reports seen by the Wall Street Journal identified an Unrwa Arabic teacher who was also a Hamas terrorist commander and took part in a terrorist attack on Kibbutz Be’eri, where 97 people were murdered, and about 26 people were kidnapped and taken as hostages to Gaza.
Another Unrwa employee, described in the dossier as an Unrwa social worker, played a role in absconding with the body of a dead Israeli soldier, which was taken to Gaza, the reports said. He also coordinated trucks and munitions distributions for Hamas before being killed.

“One is accused of kidnapping a woman. Another is said to have handed out ammunition. A third was described as taking part in the massacre at a kibbutz where 97 people died. And all were said to be employees of UNRWA…” https://t.co/akDFVuZxfE
This is still crazy to me. More reports the Palestine Authority (PA) plans to pay families of Hamas terrorists who took part in the October 7th massacre of Israeli civilians. @WSJ previously reported the PA added thousands to their "pay for slay" roster. https://t.co/G6sCV1jTxL
On #HolocaustRemembranceDay, we memorialize the approximately six million Jews who were senselessly murdered during the Holocaust. It’s acutely important that #WeRemember these atrocities and firmly commit ourselves to rooting out antisemitism and hate.
79 years ago today, the world witnessed the darkest moment in history when the Allied forces liberated Auschwitz concentration camp. We cannot let unjustifiable hatred wipe away innocent lives.
Today and everyday, I will continue to call out anti-semitism in all forms.
Wow. The State Department “has temporarily paused additional funding” to UNRWA amid allegations that 12 of the UN agency’s employees were involved in the Hamas attack, per States spokesman Matt Miller. “Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken spoke with United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres on January 25 to emphasize the necessity of a thorough and swift investigation of this matter."
State Dept: US is extremely troubled by allegations 12 UNRWA employees may have been involved in the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack on Israel. State Dept has paused additional funding for UNRWA while we review these allegations and the steps the UN is taking to address them.
CNN: A survivor of Hamas captivity said he was held hostage by an UNRWA teacher. What's UNRWA's response?
UNRWA: I can speak about the flour that UNRWA delivers.
CNN: Does it bother you that an UNRWA teacher held somebody hostage?
UNRWA: Every bag of flour is cross-referenced.
There is a ceasefire in which Hamas releases all the hostages and surrenders unconditionally.
And then there is a ceasefire in which Israel makes all the concessions and Hamas makes none.
Why is the international community demanding a ceasefire that keeps Hamas in power and the hostages in captivity? A pro-Hamas, rather than a pro-hostage, ceasefire.
“Rape is not resistance or freedom fighting.” Gwyneth Paltrow shared a story with a powerful message in support of the innocent Israeli victims of October 7th. There is NO excuse for the horrific violent acts of #Hamas.
