Graham: 'UNRWA Has Blood On Its Hands'

WASHINGTON-U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) at the Senate Appropriations Committee markup today criticized the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) for their ties to Hamas and other terrorist organizations that operate in Gaza. Intelligence reports and media reports have found that UNRWA employees participated in the October 7 attack on Israel. Additionally, Hamas and other terrorist groups use UNRWA offices and schools to store weapons and act as command centers.

  • GRAHAM: "UNRWA has blood on its hands. They're part of the problem, not the solution.I have no desire, zero desire, to help UNRWA. You can't convince me they've changed. Nothing's changed that I know of… So, I want to make sure we don't give a dime to this organization anytime soon." https://youtu.be/eb6wgbgZOwA?si=vgsvV2atY0TNSmRx&t=551
