Hamas: UNRWA's decision to halt aid unjustified

Hamas spokesman Fawzi Barhoum called UNRWA's decision to suspend its aid to Gaza due to Hamas' theft of supplies "unjustified."

 

He said Hamas supports UNRWA's work, but believes that some of the agency's employees were giving aid to groups attached to rival political parties. "We as Hamas refuse all use of the people's needs for political ends," he said. He called on UNRWA "to put an end to using aid for political means, and to distribute it to all the needy equally."
