UNRWA employees detained, tortured by Israeli army
UNRWA accused on Monday the Israeli occupation forces of detaining “several of its staff from the Gaza Strip” who later reported experiences of torture and abuse while they were in custody.
“Our staff have reported atrocious events while they were detained and during interrogations by the Israeli authorities. These reports included torture, severe ill-treatment, abuse, and sexual exploitation,” UNRWA said in a statement to AFP.
“Some of our staff have conveyed to UNRWA teams that they were forced to confessions under torture and ill-treatment” while being asked about the October 7 events.
The forthcoming #UNRWA report aligns with numerous other reports from various human rights organizations, highlighting instances of torture and abuse by Israeli occupation forces, according to accounts of released detainees.

“This is putting our staff in Gaza at risk and has serious implications on our operations in Gaza and around the region.”
“These forced confessions as a result of torture are being used by the Israeli authorities to further spread misinformation about the agency as part of attempts to dismantle UNRWA,” the agency said.
UNRWA stated it had sent a formal protest regarding the detentions but had not yet received a response. “Israel”, in response to AFP on Monday, dismissed the UNRWA allegations as “baseless”.
