Survivors and families of victims from the October 7 Hamas massacre have filed a lawsuit against the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) USA National Committee. The lawsuit alleges that UNRWA USA, a major donor to UNRWA, has been systematically and knowingly financing Hamas terrorism, including the events of October 7 that resulted in mass slaughter, rape, and abductions. The legal action seeks to hold UNRWA USA accountable for its alleged financial support of Hamas, marking the first direct legal case against UNRWA for its role in the attacks. The plaintiffs, represented by a legal team from The Israel Law Center (The ILF) and the New Jersey American Association of Jewish Lawyers and Jurists (NJAC), argue that UNRWA has become an inseparable part of Hamas. The lawsuit has garnered attention and is reported by various news outlets, including Ynetnews, JNS.org, and The Jerusalem Post.
