New details about the role of U.N. employees in the October 7 terrorist attack have come to light today in reports from media outlets that have gained access to an Israeli intelligence dossier presented to Western officials.

The leadership of the U.N. Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) revealed on Friday that Israel had presented evidence showing that twelve of its employees had participated in the October 7 attack, leading the U.S. State Department to pause funding for the agency as it awaits the result of an internal U.N. investigation.
