UNRWA in Gaza has been accused by Israel of not doing enough to combat Hamas infiltration. The agency claims to have investigated employee links to Hamas, even firing some. A decade ago, a U.N. legal officer in Gaza received death threats, including an attempt on his life with a live grenade. These events shed light on the current crisis facing UNRWA, which is now providing shelter for over half of Gaza's population.
