Ex-UNRWA chief says Board of Peace met with agency

What was said

A former chief of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees, known as UNRWA, says the Board of Peace has met with the agency. The statement raises questions about how the Board of Peace describes its role in Gaza.

Why it matters

The Board of Peace has said it has no role in Gaza. The former UNRWA chief’s account describes contact between the two organizations despite that stated position.

UNRWA is the United Nations agency named in the account. The claim concerns meetings with the Board of Peace, not a documented change in the Board’s public position.

What remains at issue

The central issue is whether meetings with UNRWA amount to involvement in Gaza. The former UNRWA chief says the meetings took place, while the Board of Peace has said it has no Gaza role.

The account does not by itself establish the purpose, timing or outcome of any meeting. Those details would clarify how the Board of Peace defines its role and what contact it has had with UNRWA.
