Nine staff members at the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, UNWRA, may have been involved in the 7 October Hamas-led attack on Israel, the United Nations says.
All nine have had their employment terminated, said UN deputy spokesperson Farhan Haq.
About 1,200 people were killed and 251 others were taken back to Gaza as hostages in the unprecedented assault last autumn.
“We have sufficient information in order to take the actions that we’re taking, which is to say, the termination of these nine individuals,” Mr Haq said.
