EXCLUSIVE: US Investigators Have Proof That UNRWA ‘Social Worker’ Caught on Tape Dragging an Israeli Body Into an SUV on Oct 7 Was an Active Hamas Operative
Key Points:
- Federal investigators have independently confirmed that Faisal Ali Al-Naami, a UNRWA social worker, was also a Hamas military communications operative involved in the Oct. 7 massacre, including dragging an Israeli victim's body into Gaza.
- The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) inspector general's investigation has linked over 100 UNRWA employees to active Hamas roles during the attacks, with at least three teachers implicated in holding Israeli civilians hostage.
- The findings contradict earlier UN investigations that dismissed Israel's allegations due to lack of independent corroboration, with U.S. officials calling the USAID IG probe a "game-changer" exposing Hamas infiltration in UNRWA.
- The ongoing USAID investigation may lead to criminal referrals and federal blacklisting of implicated UNRWA staff, intensifying calls from some U.S. lawmakers and officials to dissolve or designate UNRWA as a terrorist organization.
- UN agencies have reportedly obstructed the USAID investigation by withholding documents, while Hamas is accused of intimidating NGO workers in Gaza to control aid operations, raising concerns about the integrity of U.S.-funded humanitarian assistance.
