Israel Indicts Second Gaza Aid Worker for Helping Hamas - and Says There Are Others
(AFP-France 24) Joe Dyke - Israel said Tuesday it had charged Waheed Borsh, 38, who works for the UN Development Program (UNDP), with helping the Islamist movement Hamas, the second such indictment in a week. The UNDP promised "a thorough internal review of the processes and circumstances surrounding the allegation." "This is not an isolated case, but rather a troubling trend of the systematic exploitation by Hamas terrorists of UN organizations," said the Israeli ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon. Maj.-Gen. (res.) Eitan Dangot, Israel's former Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories, said Tuesday it was likely other aid agencies were similarly involved with Hamas. "If we published two, just think how many there are besides. And there are for sure."
