The Israeli delegation to the UN screened a documentary yesterday for dozens of diplomats regarding corruption within the UN agency, UNRWA. The film examines the gap between the agency's stated objectives and its actual activities over the years. According to reports by the Jerusalem Post and JDN, Israel's Ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon, attended the event. Danon stated that the film demonstrates how the agency has served as an arm of the terrorist organization Hamas, adding that "slowly and firmly, the truth is coming to light." Further details regarding the impact of the screening on the represented nations have not yet been released.
