House Republicans are launching a probe into the Biden administration’s previous funding to the U.N. Agency in Gaza over allegations that its staffers were involved in the Hamas-led terror attack on Israel last year.

In a Feb. 16 letter to State Secretary Antony Blinken, the House Oversight and Accountability Committee requested documents and information related to the Biden administration’s 2021 decision to renew funding for the United Nation’s Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA).
