Weapons Located in UNRWA Bags

The 7th Brigade Combat Team has been intensifying its counter-terrorism operations in western Khan Yunis, targeting strategic compounds transformed by Hamas into battle-ready positions. During one such operation, IDF soldiers made a significant discovery that underscores the extent of cooperation between the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) and Hamas: mortar bombs and cartridges were found stashed inside bags clearly marked as UNRWA property. This evidence points to a stark reality—UNRWA has not just been an unwitting participant but an enabler in the perpetuation of terrorism.

The uncovering of these weapons within UNRWA-marked bags reveals more than a mere violation; it exposes UNRWA’s active role in facilitating terror. Alongside these, the IDF confiscated AK-47s, bullets, grenades, explosives, drones, RPG launchers, and communication equipment—all within the same Hamas compound. This cache indicates that UNRWA’s support extends beyond logistics and includes the very tools used to carry out violence against Israeli forces and civilians. It is no coincidence that weapons were concealed within materials provided by an organization purportedly dedicated to humanitarian aid.

UNRWA’s True Role: A Facade for Terror Operations

This discovery adds to a growing body of evidence showing that UNRWA is far from neutral. The organization’s facilities and resources have repeatedly been linked to Hamas operations, suggesting a shared agenda under the guise of humanitarianism. The presence of weapons in UNRWA bags underscores how aid intended for civilian support can be manipulated into a conduit for violence, weaponizing assistance that was meant for peace and stability.

These operations in western Khan Yunis are part of broader IDF efforts to neutralize terrorist infrastructure. Soldiers have been eliminating Hamas operatives using a combination of tank fire, direct combat, and precision airstrikes. While clearing terrorist compounds and searching buildings, IDF forces also raided the home of a senior Hamas military intelligence operative, discovering a tunnel shaft and more hidden weapons. The tunnel, a critical asset for Hamas operations, was subsequently destroyed to prevent future use.

Weapons in Humanitarian Disguise: Unmasking UNRWA’s Involvement

The repeated discoveries of UNRWA-branded items in the hands of terrorists point to a deeply entrenched complicity. This is not a case of incidental misuse; it represents a strategic alignment where UNRWA’s logistical support aids in operational capacities. The implications are serious: UNRWA’s humanitarian credibility is undermined when its resources are found to be supporting Hamas’s war efforts, revealing an organization that operates as more than a neutral aid provider. It is acting as an enabler that empowers Hamas to carry out its campaign of terror.

The soldiers of the 7th Brigade Combat Team encountered fierce resistance, facing off against terrorists during the raid. In one particular instance, eight armed operatives approached the soldiers, who effectively neutralized the threat using a precision missile. These moments highlight the operational intensity on the ground and the level of threat posed by a network that benefits from the complicity of organizations like UNRWA.

The Need for Accountability

The discovery of weapons hidden in UNRWA-marked bags in a Hamas-controlled compound demands immediate international attention. The global community must reassess how UNRWA’s operations are monitored and funded. This incident is a clear signal that UNRWA’s involvement is not just passive; it is active in facilitating an environment where terrorism can thrive under the pretense of aid.

The time has come to hold UNRWA accountable and to ensure that aid directed towards humanitarian purposes is not perverted into tools of war and terror.
