The Israeli government alleged on Tuesday that the refugee agency United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNWRA) has been co-opted by Hamas militants, and at least 13 UNWRA employees were actively involved in the Oct. 7 attack on Israel.

Israeli government spokesperson Eylon Levy shared some parts of an Israeli intelligence dossier that prompted a cascade of countries to halt funds for the UN Palestinian aid agency. It includes allegations that some staff took part in abductions and killings during the Oct. 7 raid that sparked Israel's war in Gaza.

UN spokesperson Stephane Dujarric said on Monday that the UN has not formally received a copy of the dossier, while Palestinians have accused Israel of falsifying information to tarnish UNRWA, which says it has fired some staffers and is investigating the allegations.

Meanwhile, people protested on Tuesday in front of the UN Palestinian aid agency UNRWA's building in Beirut against the suspension of funding by some Western states.
