(i24News) Israel's Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon told the Security Council on Monday, "The UNRWA workers who were killed last week are Hamas terrorists....UNRWA-Gaza has become nothing more than a cartel, fostering hatred and prolonging misery in Gaza." Israel has provided more than 100 names of terrorists who were Hamas military operatives employed by UNRWA, "yet some here continue to fund this agency as if it were neutral, as if it were part of the solution and not part of the problem." "The root of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza is not a shortage of food or medicine - it is that Hamas continues to hold its people hostage in service of their evil ideology....It is time for this council to acknowledge the truth: the humanitarian crisis in Gaza...stems from...the grip of a terror organization that values death over life. The defeat of Hamas is not only an Israeli interest - it is a humanitarian imperative."
