Such an apparent lack of transparency for a humanitarian group is a "critical" issue, says Bill Deere, Washington DC office director for the UN's Palestinian refugee agency UNRWA.

Last year, after accusations made by Israel, the UN fired nine staff out of UNRWA's 17,000-strong workforce, saying they may have been involved in the October 7 attacks.

I press Bill Deere, of UNRWA, on Israel and GHF's criticism, that Hamas was diverting aid under the UN system.

One official report posted online in January of this year was headed "Dismantling Unrwa Chief Lazzarini's Falsehoods".

Unrwa, Israel says, has been infiltrated and exploited by Hamas to an unprecedented degree.
