European Commission
We are extremely concerned by allegations of UNRWA staff involvement in the 7th October terrorist attacks in Israel.
The EU reiterates its strongest condemnation of the attacks by the Hamas terrorists against Israel, which have no justification.
UNRWA has been playing a vital role over many years supporting vulnerable Palestinian refugees in accessing vital services such as education and health, and is a crucial partner of the international community, including the EU.
We are in contact with UNRWA, expect it to provide full transparency on the allegations and to take immediate measures against staff involved. The Commission will assess further steps and draw lessons based on the result of the full and comprehensive investigation.
