WASHINGTON — More than 100 staff at the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) for Palestinian refugees have been referred for suspension or debarment from taking US taxpayer dollars after a federal watchdog found they had helped Hamas carry out the Oct. 7, 2023, terror attack against Israel. The US Agency for International Development’s Office of Inspector General (USAID) submitted 101 more names for debarment or suspension based on their “participation” in the attack that killed 1,200 in Israel — including 46 US citizens — or “affiliation” with Hamas’ military wing, the al-Qassam Brigades.
