Israel says it will cooperate with an independent probe into the ties between UNRWA and Hamas in Gaza after the UN says it is appointing a team to investigate the allegations.

“Congratulations to the UN on forming the investigative committee,” says Foreign Minister Israel Katz. “We will submit all evidence highlighting UNRWA’s ties to terrorism and its harmful effects on regional stability. It is imperative that this committee brings the truth to light, necessitating the immediate resignation of the UNRWA chairman.”
