Trump Admin Calls For Key UN Agency To Be Dismantled, ‘Irredeemably Compromised’

The Trump administration has taken a firm stance against the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), declaring the organization beyond saving due to its deep ties to Hamas.

A classified congressional notice confirms that the administration has officially launched efforts to dismantle the agency and halt all engagement.

Key Facts:

  • The Trump administration notified Congress on July 29, 2025, that UNRWA is “irredeemably compromised” and must be dismantled.
  • At least a dozen UNRWA employees reportedly participated in the October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorist attacks on Israel.
  • The State Department cut off all funding and formal ties to UNRWA in January 2024 and ceased any working-level participation in May 2025.
  • UNRWA has failed to return unspent U.S. funds despite promising to do so in April 2025.
  • Gazans and U.S. officials report ongoing Hamas theft of UNRWA aid, with militants hijacking and reselling supplies.

The Rest of The Story:

UNRWA, originally set up to provide aid to Palestinian refugees, has come under heavy fire for its entanglement with Hamas, the Gaza-based terrorist group.

According to a July 29 notification obtained by the Washington Free Beacon, the Trump administration formally determined the agency is beyond reform.

The State Department confirmed the U.S. has had no programs or active engagement with UNRWA since January 2024.

The U.S. government’s position hardened after it was revealed that UNRWA staff were directly involved in Hamas’s brutal October 7, 2023, massacre in Israel.

According to U.S. intelligence, as much as 12 percent of U.N. employees in Gaza are affiliated with Hamas or similar groups, with many serving in critical logistics roles such as driving aid trucks.

Despite calls for reform, UNRWA has failed to prevent its aid from being diverted by Hamas.

“UNRWA exists to provide cover for Hamas,” said a senior State Department official. “They are completely corrupt and should be disbanded.”

Eyewitness reports from Gazans confirm that armed Hamas members regularly intercept aid shipments meant for civilians.

In February 2025, the Trump administration officially withdrew from UNRWA.

A subsequent request for the agency to return unspent U.S. funds went unanswered.

By May, Secretary of State Marco Rubio ordered a complete end to U.S. involvement with any UNRWA bodies within the U.N. framework.

Meanwhile, Hamas has demanded that UNRWA be reinstated as the main aid conduit in ceasefire negotiations, strengthening the U.S. view that the agency serves Hamas’s interests.

Commentary:

It’s no longer a matter of reform—UNRWA must be permanently shut down.

The agency’s repeated failures to prevent terrorist infiltration, coupled with its entanglement with Hamas, make it a security threat disguised as a humanitarian mission.

The most damning revelation is that UNRWA staff actively participated in the October 7 atrocities.

Any organization that allows its workers to double as terrorists forfeits its legitimacy—and its right to operate.

Let’s not forget, UNRWA has been propped up by Western taxpayer money for decades while systematically failing to provide accountability.

Aid meant for innocent civilians ends up in the hands of militants who use it to terrorize those very same people—and attack Israel.

That’s not aid; that’s abetting. The United Nations itself bears responsibility.

It has become a bureaucratic haven for anti-Americanism and anti-Israel sentiment.

Agencies like UNRWA operate with impunity while turning a blind eye to terrorist abuse of their platforms.

It’s time to consider a bold move: the U.S. should not only sever ties with UNRWA permanently but also reconsider its involvement with the United Nations as a whole.

Why should American taxpayers fund an organization that consistently empowers those who hate us?

The U.N. has proven unwilling or unable to clean house.

Its agencies have become vehicles for corruption and politicized narratives that undermine U.S. interests and global security.

If UNRWA is allowed to continue, we send a message that terror has no consequences. That cannot stand.

The U.S. must lead the charge to build a new framework for aid—one that protects the innocent and cuts off those who exploit suffering for political and violent ends.

The Bottom Line:

The Trump administration has officially declared UNRWA unsalvageable due to its ties with Hamas and systemic corruption.

This decision follows months of revelations about agency staff aiding terrorists and Hamas stealing humanitarian supplies.

The U.S. is right to demand UNRWA’s dismantlement—and should go further by reassessing its entire relationship with the United Nations.
