#UNRWA / Documents reveal alleged pattern of Israeli harassment of Unrwa workers on West Bank
Internal UN papers present allegations of systematic harassment, obstruction and violations against UN operations and staff in the West Bank by Israeli authorities in the context of the Gaza conflict.
UN staff working with Palestinians in the occupied West Bank have been subjected to systematic obstruction and harassment by Israeli military and authorities since the beginning of the Gaza conflict, including alleged incidents of blindfolding, beating, verbal abuse, and intrusive searches at checkpoints.
The documents record hundreds of incidents ranging from alleged assault on UN staff to the use of UN facilities by Israeli troops as firing positions during raids on refugee camps where Palestinians were killed.
UN shipments of crucial medical supplies were allegedly delayed for over two months by Israeli customs authorities.
