“We decided not to cooperate with this circus,” Sa’ar declared
“It is not Israel that should be on trial but the UN and UNRWA, which has been infiltrated by terrorists.” He accused the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, which coordinates much of Gaza’s humanitarian aid, of employing over 1,400 known terrorists, including Mohammed Abu Itiwi, a Hamas commander who participated in the October 7 massacre. “Abu Itiwi was caught on video participating in the murder and kidnapping of Israelis near Kibbutz Re’im,” Sa’ar said.
Sa’ar also denounced UN Secretary-General António Guterres, claiming he had failed to act despite repeated Israeli warnings about UNRWA’s ties to terrorism.
“He knew what was happening at UNRWA before and after October 7, yet he did nothing to prevent the atrocities,” Sa’ar said. “He continues to whitewash the crimes of UNRWA and its terrorist employees,” Sa’ar said.
