I hope the renewed smear campaign of UNWRA isn't a cover to start the invasion of Rafah. It probably is :/

It's already being repeated by US media as fact...

Israel calls on UNRWA boss to resign over alleged Hamas compound under Gaza HQ

Israel’s foreign minister has called for the resignation of the head of the UN agency for Palestinian refugees following the alleged discovery of a Hamas compound under the organisation’s headquarters in Gaza. The call comes after UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini said his agency could not “confirm or otherwise comment” on the reports and “did not know what is under its headquarters in Gaza”.

“The exposure of @UNRWA‘s Gaza headquarters’ deep involvement with Hamas, including its use for terror activities and as an access point to terror tunnels, requires immediate action,” Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz said in a post on X. “@UNLazzarini‘s claim of unawareness is not only absurd but also an affront to common sense. His prompt resignation is imperative.”

UNRWA staff left Gaza City headquarters on October 12: Chief

UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini has said that Israeli forces “have not informed UNRWA officially” of an “alleged tunnel” under Gaza City headquarters the UN agency’s staff left in early October last year. UNRWA has not used the compound since staff departed on October 12 “following the Israeli evacuation orders and as bombardment intensified in the area”, he said.

Lazzarini added that UNRWA had only learned of the allegations and the presence of Israeli troops within the headquarters through media reports. “These recent media reports merit an independent inquiry that is currently not possible to undertake given Gaza is an active war zone,” he added.


The key again is in the timing. The IDF has left Gaza city and now suddenly comes with these new allegations.
