EU leaders call for UNRWA to disband after Israeli-British hostage says Hamas held her in UN facilities.
NEW YORK POST -- European lawmakers joined the call to shut down the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) after it was revealed that the Israeli-British hostage freed by Hamas had been held in the humanitarian group’s facilities.
Nearly three dozen officials from 14 EU nations signed a letter accusing the embattled UNRWA of being compromised by Hamas terrorists after Emily Damari, 28, said she had been kept in UN facilities during her 15-months of captivity in Gaza.
Damari did not say whether she ever saw UNRWA staffers in the buildings she was held at. She told UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer that the terrorists treated her for gunshot wounds at one of the facilities with an expired bottle of iodine.
