UNRWA Teachers Telegram Group Lauds Terrorists as Heroes, Calls To Execute Hostages

JERUSALEM (VINnews) — Israel’s Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar recommended in closed hearings that at the Hague Tribunal hearing which will take place Thursday, Israel should shame the UN before the world by revealing evidence of UNRWA (United Nations Relief Work Agency for Palestinian Refugees) staff involvement in the October 7 Hamas massacre.

UNRWA is a United Nations subsidiary dedicated solely to helping Palestinian refugees and supported by volunteer nations. Yet the organization also incites, supports and actively covers for terrorist activities.

UN Watch, a Geneva-based non-governmental organization which monitors the United Nations, published on Wednesday a Telegram channel consisting of 3,000 UNRWA teachers in Gaza filled with posts expressing support for the October 7th massacre.

Shortly after the infiltration into Israel began, members of the group praised the perpetrators as “heroes,” lauded the education received by the terrorists, shared images of dead or captured Israelis, and called for the execution of hostages.

The chat group contains numerous files containing UNRWA staff names, ID numbers, schedules, and curriculum materials. Despite its intended purpose of supporting UNRWA teachers, the group frequently shares videos, photos, and messages that encourage jihadi terrorism and openly celebrate the Hamas massacre and the rape of civilians.

One example from the report is UNRWA teacher Abdallah Mehjez, who urged Gazan civilians not to heed warnings to move out of harm’s way and instead to serve as human shields. Before UNRWA, Abdallah worked for the BBC.
