The U.N. says it has fired nine staff members from its agency for Palestinian refugees, known as UNRWA, after an internal investigation found they may have been involved in the Hamas-led Oct. 7 attack against Israel.

    Both can be bad. No amount of violence on the part of Israel will absolve Hamas of theirs.
