UN cash app for Gazans exploited by Hamas as terror group steals aid money meant for civilians

Published

on


United Nations agencies’ monthly cash transfers to Gaza residents are inadvertently strengthening the Hamas terrorist organization, as the group and affiliated traders continue to control the money flow to the enclave, an expert on Hamas’ financial and economic operations said.

«Hamas exploits its role as the de facto ruler of Gaza to extract financial gains from aid money sent by U.N. organizations to civilians via apps still operating in the region,» Eyal Ofer told Fox News Digital.

«The aid system is being manipulated by Hamas and affiliated traders. Hamas does this largely behind the scenes, leveraging their control over large merchants, crime families, and using cash to establish a shadow banking system within Gaza.»

HOW ISRAEL’S WAR AGAINST HAMAS TERRORISTS WILL BE DIFFERENT UNDER TRUMP

Each month, international organizations send significant sums into Gaza’s economy. The U.N.’s World Food Programme (WFP) transfers approximately $18.43 million, reaching 82,636 families, with each family receiving an average of $209, according to open-source data. UNICEF’s monthly assistance averages $5 million, helping to reach at least 20,000 families every month. 

«I go to the market and meet people whose job is to provide cash in exchange for a fee,» Gaza resident Shahab Yousef told Israel’s news agency TPS-IL. «The fee is 20–30%. If I transfer 1,000 shekels [$271] I get back 700 [$190],» he said. «For big purchases, I pay digitally. But at the market, I need cash, and I lose 30 percent every time.»

Another Gaza resident, Nidal Qawasmeh, expressed similar frustration to TPS-IL. «These people are charging 30 percent just to give you cash. I just want to take care of my family, but everything costs me more because of this. Prices are insane.»

The specific amount received per family every month is around $270 (or 1,000 New Israeli Shekels), which was calculated as 80% of the Survival Minimum Expenditure Basket, UNICEF told Fox News Digital. Smaller organizations like UNFPA and others also contribute, bringing the total to about $39.66 million per month, reaching 60% of Gaza’s households, according to open-source data.

Despite the scale of direct financial aid, which reaches over half of the enclave’s population, Gaza’s severe food insecurity and high inflation (91% and 118%, respectively, as of January 2024) underscore its importance. However, the way this money circulates within Gaza is far more complex. «Hamas controls much of the cash that enters Gaza through various channels,» Ofer told Fox News Digital, «People who receive money via mobile apps must convert it into cash to use in local markets, but this involves hefty fees, with many money changers tied to Hamas or its allies.»

TPS-IL reported that Israel’s Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar recently warned that Hamas’s economic strength in Gaza relies on billions of shekels in cash, paid as salaries and quickly reclaimed through taxes on merchants. In a letter to Bank of Israel Governor Prof. Amir Yaron, Sa’ar urged the cancelation of the circulation of 200-shekel bills previously introduced into Gaza, saying that experts believe the move would severely damage Hamas’s financial network. The Bank of Israel rejected the proposal, citing technical reasons and claiming that implementation was not feasible.

Ofer’s research found that the fees can range from 20% to 35%, meaning recipients lose a significant portion of their aid just to access it. «In videos from Gaza, you can see traders refusing to accept app funds and forcing customers to convert them into cash, knowing they will lose at least 20% in the process,» he said.

Peter Gallo, an international lawyer and former Office of Internal Oversight Services (OIOS) investigator at the U.N., told Fox News Digital, «If an investigator in Israel can figure it out, the aid agencies either knew or should have known. Twenty to thirty percent is just ridiculous. That’s extortion. It’s what some have politely described as a ‘revolutionary tax.’ In fairness, the aid agencies might argue they had no alternative, It is the cost of doing business, but it would have been better if they were honest about it from the start.»

A spokesperson for UNICEF told Fox News Digital, «UNICEF is aware of the cash liquidity crisis in Gaza and the continuous shortage of hard cash, which is a direct consequence of the banking system’s inability to function amid the ongoing conflict.

«Since May 2024, UNICEF has introduced fully digital cash payments via e-wallets, which do not require hard cash at any point. By using e-wallets, recipients of humanitarian digital cash transfers can purchase goods such as food, hygiene items and medicine without ever handling physical money,» the spokesperson said.

«The use of digital e-wallets can be accessed through an app and works on the most basic smartphones. When implemented, these digital cash payments via e-wallets eliminate the need for cash conversion and, consequently, the payment of any fees. The UNICEF humanitarian digital cash program adheres to the highest standards of neutrality and impartiality. No external party, actor, or agency—not even the beneficiaries themselves—has any role or influence in the design or implementation of the program, including the composition of the beneficiary list, payment schedule, frequency and amounts.»

The spokesperson claimed: «More than 1.8 million people—close to the entire population of Gaza—are grappling with extreme food insecurity, with at least half of them being children. . . . Acute malnutrition among children is rising at alarming rates. The UNICEF humanitarian cash transfer program is, simply put, keeping children alive in the midst of a war not of their making by providing them with access to essential items for their survival. UNICEF’s monthly budget for humanitarian cash transfers in Gaza averages USD 5 million to support approximately 20,000 families. We estimate that these parameters are too small to significantly impact the local economy.»

The World Food Programme didn’t respond to multiple requests for comment.

«Turning a blind eye is not acceptable. The U.N. Security Council has been addressing terrorist financing since 2001, yet aid agencies continue to ignore the fact that Hamas is making a profit off this money flow, despite international efforts to stop terrorist financing,» Gallo said.

Power players or baseball players? The history behind the Congressional Baseball Game

Published

on


NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

Washington is stocked with power players. The president. White House officials. Cabinet secretaries. U.S. Representatives. Senators. Powerful aides. Lobbyists. Journalists.

But how about baseball players?

Democrats and Republicans convene Wednesday night at Nats Park just blocks from the Capitol for the annual Congressional game.

REPORTER’S NOTEBOOK: LAWMAKERS TAKE TO THE FIELD IN STRANGE SPECTACLE OF ANNUAL CONGRESSIONAL BASEBALL GAME

Since 1909, Democrats and Republicans have traded in conference committees for mound visits.

The Congressional Record for scorecards.

And parliamentarians for umpires.

Rep. Roger Williams, R-Texas, is a former Atlanta Braves farmhand. He gets his squad out on the practice diamond nearly every morning when lawmakers are in session at 5:45.

«We’ve been working out since March 1,» said Williams. «I think we’re as good as we were last year.»

Advertisement

However, he noted that springtime rain limited practice time. And, an injury might beset the GOP squad.

House Republican Conference Vice Chairman Blake Moore, R-Utah, started in center field for Republicans last year. Moore is one of the best overall athletes for either team. Moore won the high school Heisman Trophy in 1997. However, Moore injured his collar bone diving to make a save as a goalie in the Congressional soccer game a few weeks ago.

Yes, there’s a Congressional soccer game, too. And flag football game. And basketball game. And hockey game.

And voters sometimes wonder why nothing ever gets done in Washington?

UNDER THE DOME AND ON THE DIAMOND

Anyway, Moore says his clavicle has healed. Ironically, he can golf. But can’t play baseball. And can’t reach up to put away the dishes in the cupboard after dinner.

«That goes over really well with my wife,» said Moore.

A penalty for playing soccer?

«I fined him $500,» said Williams – we believe jokingly.

Rep. Jake Ellzey, R-Texas, played right field last year. He moves to center field in place of Moore Wednesday night. Rep. Marlin Stutzman, R-Ind., patrols right field for Republicans.

Stutzman returned to Congress this year after an eight-year hiatus. Stutzman played in six games before, hitting .083. Stutzman used to pitch for the GOP. But his services out of the bullpen probably aren’t necessary. After all, Stutzman might not match up to other Hoosier State hurlers like Tommy John and Don Larsen. On the mound, Stutzman sports an 0-2 record with a 14.44 ERA in the Congressional contest.

That said, Williams does have a potential newcomer who can throw: Freshman Rep. Pat Harrigan, R-N.C., is a rookie and a fireballer.

«He’s my Ryne Duren,» said Williams of Harrigan.

To the uninitiated, Duren was a flamethrowing all-star in the 1950s and ‘60s – mostly with the New York Yankees and Cincinnati Reds. Duren wore Coke-bottle glasses. The line «Oh say can you see» during «The Star-Spangled Banner» took on a little more meaning for opposing hitters when Duren was on the mound with his fastball.

Williams says Harrigan can bring it. But his control needs work.

THE TRAGEDY OF PETER EDWARD ROSE

Rep. Linda Sanchez, D-Calif., enters her third year as the Democrats’ skipper. She’s the first woman to manage the team.

Women first played in the game in 1993. Former Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, R-Fla., along with former Sen. Blanche Lincoln, D-Ark., and current Sen. Maria Cantwell, D-Wash., broke the gender barrier. Both Lincoln and Cantwell played as House Members. Sanchez appeared in 11 games and is one of the best women to suit up. She hit .455, going 5-11 with two walks.

Sanchez bleeds Dodger blue. She historically wears a Fernando Valenzuela jersey while managing. Valenzuela was one of the most iconic Dodgers of all time, capturing the 1981 Cy Young Award with his screwball as «Fernandomania» seized southern California. Valenzuela died last fall.

But Sanchez used to pull for the «California» Angels – now the Los Angeles Angels. Sanchez switched her allegiance from the Halos to the Dodgers after the Angels let Nolan Ryan escape to the Houston Astros in late 1979.

One wonders how Sanchez would have felt if she were a New York Mets fan back when they traded Ryan to the Angels?

TRUMP’S SPENDING BILL HEADS TO SENATE WHERE REPUBLICANS PLAN STRATEGIC ADJUSTMENTS TO KEY PROVISIONS

Sanchez’s success at the plate hasn’t followed her into the Democrats’ dugout. Republicans have captured the last four contests – including the two which Sanchez managed. Republicans pounded the Democrats last year, 31-11. The GOP topped the Democrats 16-6 in 2023. There was no game in 2020 due to the pandemic. So the Democrats haven’t won since 2019. Republicans hold a 38-23 advantage in the «modern» era of the game. They began playing the Congressional game in 1909. But late House Speaker Sam Rayburn, D-Texas, halted the game because it became too violent.

There was a legendary collision at home plate in the 1956 game. Late Rep. Charles Curtis, R-Mo., was catching for the GOP. Rep. Olin «Tiger» Teague, D-Texas, steamrolled Curtis at the plate. Teague is buried at Arlington National Cemetery. But Teague buried Curtis at home in that game. Orderlies hauled Curtis off the old Griffith Stadium field on a stretcher.

Mannion meets with lawmakers

Sanchez is buoyed by at least four new freshmen – or rookies – on her club. Reps. Dave Min, D-Calif., Derek Tran, D-Calif., John Mannion, D-N.Y., and Johnny Olszewski, D-Md.

«Our principal weakness has been not a lot of depth to our bullpen. And this year we’ve got a couple of freshmen that can throw. So we’re hoping that with those additions, we can do a lot better this year,» said Sanchez.

Expect Mannion to work in relief.

REPUBLICAN LAWMAKERS STAND FIRM AGAINST MUSK’S ‘KILL THE BILL’ ASSAULT ON TRUMP’S AGENDA

Like most Major League clubs, the Democrats need pitching.

«We had a great run for a little while when Cedric Richmond was on the mound,» said House Democratic Caucus Chairman Pete Aguilar, D-Calif., who pitches, catches and plays infield for the Democrats.

Former Rep. Cedric Richmond, D-La., is one of the greatest players in Congressional Baseball Game history. He pitched in college. He threw 80-mph-plus to stymie fellow lawmakers. Richmond boasted an 8-0 record and a miniscule 2.64 ERA.

But Richmond left Congress to work for former President Biden in 2021. The Democrats haven’t been formidable since.

Heading into Wednesday’s contest, Sanchez teased that her goal with the Republicans in the game is «making them cry.»

«But we come together and do something good for the area,» added Sanchez, noting the $2 million the game raises for children’s charities in the DC area.

But she concedes, «there’s always trash talk.»

HOUSE REPUBLICANS PUSH FOR SPENDING CANCELLATIONS AS ELON MUSK AND CONSERVATIVES DEMAND DEEPER BUDGET CUTS

So Democrats try to escape from their slump. The Democrats haven’t won under Sanchez. But they’re oh-fer since House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., took over in 2023.

«It’s my expectation that the Democratic comeback is going to begin in 2025 at the Congressional Baseball Game,» said Jeffries last week.

But the Brooklyn Democrat said the same thing two years ago.

«I think this is the year for the big, Democratic comeback,» said Jeffries in June 2023.

«You realize since you’ve been the Minority Leader that the Republicans have defeated the Democrats by a combined score of 47 to 1?» asked yours truly.

«I also realize that my record as an active member of the Congressional Baseball Game team, I believe, was 9-1,» replied Jeffries.

But is that because of Jeffries? Or Cedric Richmond?

Statistics are paramount in baseball. Whether you’re scoring at home. Or using the Congressional Budget Office. Jeffries is 1-6 hitting in his nine games on the Democratic squad. That’s good for a .167 average. Well below the Mendoza Line. But he did swipe seven bases.

And this year, Democrats will again try to steal a win against a talented Republican club.

Masivo ataque de Rusia contra Kiev y Odesa: al menos un muerto, múltiples heridos y daños a infraestructuras civiles

Las ciudades ucranianas de Kiev y Odesa fueron blanco de un nuevo ataque aéreo masivo lanzado por Rusia en la madrugada de este martes. La ofensiva, ejecutada con drones explosivos y misiles, dejó al menos un muerto, varios heridos y severos daños en infraestructuras civiles, según reportaron autoridades locales.

En Odesa, una persona murió y cuatro resultaron heridas cuando los ataques alcanzaron edificios residenciales, una maternidad y un centro de emergencias médicas, informó el gobernador regional Oleg Kiper. “El enemigo atacó Odesa masivamente con drones. Infraestructuras civiles sufrieron daños y hay incendios”, declaró. Indicó además que la maternidad fue evacuada a tiempo, lo que evitó víctimas en ese centro.

En Kiev, el alcalde Vitali Klitschko informó que el ataque fue también de gran escala, instando a la población a buscar refugio. En los distritos de Darnitski y Obolonski, al menos dos personas resultaron heridas. Según el jefe de la administración militar de la capital, Timur Tkachenko, un edificio en el distrito de Shevchenskivski se incendió y dejó un herido adicional. Una periodista de la agencia AFP reportó haber escuchado al menos 12 explosiones y disparos de la defensa aérea en el centro de la ciudad.

El jefe de gabinete del presidente Volodimir Zelensky, Andrii Yermak, denunció la agresión y pidió mayores sanciones y apoyo militar.

Rusia miente todos los días sobre su deseo de paz y ataca a las personas todos los días. Es hora de imponer sanciones. Hora de apoyar a Ucrania con armas. Hora de demostrar que la democracia tiene poder”, escribió en Telegram.

Según la fuerza aérea ucraniana, entre la noche del domingo y la madrugada del lunes Rusia lanzó 479 drones explosivos en lo que constituye el mayor bombardeo nocturno con drones desde el inicio de la guerra. También se dispararon al menos 20 misiles hacia distintas regiones del país. Las defensas aéreas ucranianas reportaron la intercepción de 277 drones y 19 misiles, aunque 10 lograron alcanzar sus objetivos. Las cifras no pudieron ser verificadas de manera independiente.

En paralelo, los esfuerzos diplomáticos siguen sin avances significativos. La única señal de cooperación fue el anuncio conjunto del lunes de un nuevo intercambio de prisioneros de guerra entre Ucrania y Rusia. El proceso se realizará en los próximos días, pero ninguna de las partes reveló la cantidad de soldados implicados, alegando razones de seguridad.

El acuerdo fue resultado de la segunda ronda de negociaciones directas celebrada el 2 de junio en Estambul, donde se pactó liberar a todos los prisioneros gravemente heridos, enfermos y menores de 25 años. También se alcanzó un compromiso para el intercambio de varios miles de cuerpos de soldados fallecidos en combate.

Más allá de ese acuerdo limitado, las negociaciones de paz permanecen bloqueadas. Rusia exige que Ucrania renuncie a ingresar en la OTAN y ceda los territorios que Moscú afirma haber anexionado. Además, el Kremlin ha rechazado una propuesta ucraniana —respaldada por aliados europeos— de una tregua incondicional de 30 días, al considerar que facilitaría el rearme de Kiev.

Por su parte, Ucrania sostiene que cualquier acuerdo de alto el fuego debe ir acompañado de un retiro total de las tropas rusas y de garantías de seguridad por parte de sus aliados occidentales, incluyendo presencia militar o tratados formales.

El conflicto, iniciado en febrero de 2022, ha convertido a ciudades como Kiev y Odesa en blancos casi diarios de ataques aéreos. La reciente intensificación de bombardeos rusos coincide con una renovada ofensiva terrestre en el este y noreste del país, donde, según Zelensky, “la situación es muy difícil”.

Advertisement

Mientras las negociaciones de paz directas, celebradas en Estambul, no han producido avances sustanciales, el conflicto sigue escalando. Rusia ha reiterado que no detendrá su ofensiva hasta que se cumplan sus condiciones. La comunidad internacional, entre tanto, expresa preocupación por el impacto humanitario, especialmente en zonas densamente pobladas como Kiev y Odesa.

Las redadas contra inmigrantes en Los Ángeles: un conflicto a medida para la estrategia de Donald Trump

Published

on



Es la lucha que el presidente Donald Trump había estado esperando: un enfrentamiento con uno de sus principales rivales políticos en un Estado profundamente demócrata sobre una cuestión fundamental para su programa político.

Al ignorar la autoridad del gobernador demócrata de California, Gavin Newsom, para llamar a la Guardia Nacional con el fin de sofocar las protestas en Los Ángeles contra los esfuerzos de su gobierno para deportar a más migrantes, Trump está sobrepasando los límites de la autoridad presidencial y avivando las críticas que señalan que exacerba la situación para obtener beneficios políticos.

Advertisement

Las autoridades locales y estatales no habían pedido ayuda para hacer frente a las protestas dispersas que estallaron tras una redada de migración el viernes. Pero Trump y sus principales ayudantes se inclinaron el domingo por la confrontación con los líderes de California, al presentar las manifestaciones como una amenaza existencial para el país y poner en marcha una agresiva respuesta federal que, a su vez, desencadenó nuevas protestas en toda la ciudad.

Cuando más manifestantes salieron a las calles, el presidente escribió en las redes sociales que Los Ángeles estaba siendo “invadida y ocupada” por “turbas violentas e insurrectas”, y ordenó a tres de los principales funcionarios de su gabinete que tomaran las medidas necesarias para “liberar a Los Ángeles de la Invasión Migrante”.

“Nadie va a escupir a nuestros policías. Nadie va a escupir a nuestros militares”, dijo Trump a los periodistas mientras se dirigía a Camp David el pasado domingo, aunque no estaba claro si se habían producido incidentes de ese tipo. “Si eso ocurre, reciben un golpe muy duro”.

Advertisement

El presidente declinó decir si pensaba invocar la Ley de Insurrección de 1807, que permite el uso de soldados federales en suelo nacional para sofocar una rebelión.

Pero en cualquier caso, añadió, “vamos a tener soldados por todas partes”. A su vez, Stephen Miller, subjefe de gabinete de la Casa Blanca, publicó en las redes sociales que “ésta es una lucha para salvar la civilización”.

La decisión de Trump de desplegar al menos 2.000 miembros de la Guardia Nacional de California es el último ejemplo de su voluntad y, en ocasiones, de su afán por hacer añicos las normas para perseguir sus objetivos políticos y saltarse los límites del poder presidencial. El último presidente que envió a la Guardia Nacional a una operación nacional sin que lo solicitara el gobernador del Estado, Lyndon B. Johnson, lo hizo en 1965, para proteger a los manifestantes por los derechos civiles en Alabama.

Advertisement

Sin embargo, los ayudantes y aliados del presidente afirman que lo que ocurre en Los Ángeles constituye una síntesis casi perfecta del motivo por el que Trump fue elegido en noviembre. “No podría estar más claro”, dijo Newt Gingrich, expresidente republicano de la Cámara de Representantes y aliado de Trump, quien señaló que el mandatario se había enfocado en la aplicación de las leyes de migración desde 2015.

“Un bando está por hacer cumplir la ley y proteger a los estadounidenses, y el otro por defender a los ilegales y estar del lado de quien infringe la ley”.

En las redes sociales, Trump, sus ayudantes y aliados han intentado enmarcar las manifestaciones contra los funcionarios migratorios en sus propios términos. Han compartido imágenes y videos de los episodios más violentos —centrándose especialmente en ejemplos de manifestantes que arremetían contra los agentes federales— aunque muchos de ellos seguían siendo pacíficos. Las autoridades también se centraron en los manifestantes que ondeaban banderas de otros países, como México y El Salvador, como prueba de una invasión extranjera.

Advertisement

“Los delincuentes extranjeros ilegales y las turbas violentas llevan días provocando incendios, arrojando piedras contra vehículos y atacando a las fuerzas del orden federales”, dijo Karoline Leavitt, vocera de la Casa Blanca.

Newsom, a quien el presidente se refiere como “Newscum” (“escoria nueva”, en inglés), ha sido durante mucho tiempo un enemigo para Trump, quien en repetidas ocasiones ha señalado a California y a su líder como emblema de los fracasos del Partido Demócrata.

“Esperábamos esto, nos preparamos para esto”, dijo Newsom en un comunicado a The New York Times. “Esto no es sorprendente: para que ellos triunfen, California debe fracasar, y por eso van a intentar todo lo que hay en su trillado libro de jugadas a pesar de las pruebas en su contra”.
