UN Agency Slams Hamas After Discovering Tunnel Under Two Gaza Schools

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency, which operates in Gaza, has discovered a Hamas tunnel passing under two of its schools in the enclave, it said on Friday.

UNRWA condemned the existence of the tunnel in the Maghazi camp in a statement.

UNRWA said it has "robustly intervened and protested to Hamas," and informed the organization that it intends to seal the tunnel, which was discovered on June 1, during the summer break. The tunnel had no entry or exit points on the premises, the agency said.



I can't tell you how it warms my heart that the UN has robustly protested about something the Israeli's have been complaining about for a decade.

The UN busted Hamas for using three different UN facilities, including schools, as rocket launching facilities. I'm not a big fan of the IDF, either, but Hamas in Gaza is filled with a bunch of psychos.
