German broadcasters are withholding a documentary on UNRWA's terror ties from the public. As taxpayers send hundreds of millions to UNRWA, UN Watch has written to German FM Johann Wadephul demanding answers.

🧵 See what the broadcasters are trying to hide from the public:

German broadcasters don't want you to know that UNRWA staff participated in the October 7th massacre.

A U.S. federal investigation now suspects 1,500 UNRWA staff members of terror ties, including involvement with the Oct. 7 atrocities.

Meet George Katrougalos: A former Greek foreign minister chairing the U.N. committee overseeing all human rights experts.

He's embraced the Islamic Republic of Iran and praised Xi Jinping at an event after accepting $100,000 from China.

🧵 See his bias on full display:
While currently serving as the U.N. expert on a “democratic and equitable international order,” Katrougalos received $100,000 from China in 2025 — the same year he praised Xi Jinping’s book and the Chinese dictator’s “vision of openness and dialogue.”

🚨 BREAKING: New report by UN Watch reveals UN “experts” accepted millions of dollars from China, Russia, and Qatar before attacking the U.S., Israel, and the West.

🧵 See the report’s most striking findings: Alena Douhan, the UN expert against Western sanctions, received $1.3 million in funding from China, Russia, and Qatar.

Her official visits — including to Tehran, Beijing, Damascus, Doha, Caracas, and Harare — were conducted exclusively to support the regimes, not their victims.

Vogue made antisemitism fashionable when it profiled Hamas supporter Francesca Albanese.

Now meet the person behind the whitewash: Kerry McDermott, Vogue’s Digital Director.

Is she an objective journalist?
🧵 Let's take a look:

.@Klassekampen: “My life has become hell.”
Francesca Albanese: “I can't have a bank account, or earn money. I travel incognito—hotels cancel my reservations. I can't order taxis. My email is shut down. University collaborations were cut, without me even getting a chance to...”
2/ She interrupts herself. In short, she is being treated like a criminal, says Albanese, who since July has been on the same sanctions list as terrorists and drug lords.
“But if I were a criminal, at least I'd have legal protection. That's definitely not the case here. So I'm really furious,” Albanese says.

And now: The Top 10 Worst U.N. Moments of 2025

1. Saudi Arabia Chairs UN Women’s Rights Commission

Despite its abysmal record on women’s rights, the UN elected Saudi Arabia as Chair of its “global body for gender equality and the empowerment of women.”

Represented by Abdulaziz Alwasil, a regime official having no credentials as a women's rights activist, Saudi Arabia presided over the 2025 session of the UN Commission on the Status of Women. The desert monarchy still subjects women to legal discrimination including male guardianship controls.

London’s Spectator reported: “As the superb organization UN Watch points out, the UN Commission on the Status of Women has never passed a single resolution regarding Saudi Arabia’s treatment of women — and now, grotesquely, has rewarded it with the chair.”

Hillel Neuer was quoted by Women’s Agenda magazine: “By elevating a misogynistic regime to its highest women’s rights body, the UN betrays millions of female victims, in Saudi Arabia and worldwide.” womensagenda.com.au/latest/its-sur… 2. UN Launches Day to Defend Dictatorships, Framing Western Sanctions as Illegal

At the initiative of China, Cuba, Iran, and other authoritarian regimes, the United Nations on December 4, 2025 launched its new “International Day Against Unilateral Coercive Measures,” branding Western sanctions on tyrannies as violations of international law.
x.com/HillelNeuer/st…

The new annual event will boost an anti-Western narrative at the UN that is designed to shield the world’s worst human rights abusers from accountability. The campaign is driven by UN Special Rapporteur Alena Douhan of Belarus, who has used her mandate to promote the talking points of sanctioned regimes. x.com/HillelNeuer/st…

Outrageously, Annalena Baerbock, the President of the UN General Assembly who until recently was Germany’s foreign minister,  also joined the jackals. “Unilateral coercive measures imposed by a single State are in contravention of international law,” said Baerbock. Her opening remarks at the UN's Orwellian event effectively condemned U.S. sanctions on Sudanese genocide commanders, Russian war financiers, and Chinese officials who run Uyghur prison camps, as “unlawful coercion.”

BREAKING: UN names UNRWA's ex-Lebanon Director Claudio Cordone as Deputy Special Envoy for Syria.

Here's Cordone—who once also headed Amnesty International—giving an award to Lebanon's Hamas terror chief Fateh Sharif, an UNRWA educator by day who oversaw 2,000 UNRWA teachers.

https://twitter.com/UNIraq/status/1998254194256482761

2/ Claudio Cordone: “UNRWA expresses its deep appreciation to Fateh Sharif for his contribution in enhancing the school community to guarantee a better future for Palestine refugee children.”

Hamas: “Fateh Sharif fought as a martyr, and gave Jihadi education to the children.”

🚨 NEW: UN Watch has unveiled the UNRWA Terror Network, an investigative platform that exposes and maps the systemic infiltration of UNRWA by terrorist organizations including Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad.

🔗 unwatch.org/unrwa-terror-n… Users can browse between 490 profiles of UNRWA employees and terrorists and a complex web of 889 connections between them. Profiles are labeled according to affiliation with UNRWA, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and more.

Learn how to explore the UNRWA Terror Network:

BREAKING: A bombshell new 200-page report exposes how Hamas terror chiefs seized control of the UNRWA school system responsible for educating hundreds of thousands of children in Gaza and Lebanon.

The UN knew about this scandal — and did nothing.

Here are the highlights: 🧵 2/ UNRWA runs a vast network of schools for 500,000 Palestinian students.

It raises $1+ billion each year from Western states with a promise to teach these children peace and tolerance.

In reality, UNRWA handed the children over to violent terror groups like Hamas and PIJ.

The U.N. Human Rights Council was created to protect human rights & fundamental freedoms for all.

Instead, dictatorships hijacked the Council & turned it into an Orwellian nightmare.

As its 60th Session opens today in Geneva, here are 7 problems with this major U.N. body: 🧵 1. The Council is obsessed with demonizing Israel.

Every session of the Human Rights Council features a standing agenda item targeting Israel: Item 7.

No other country—not Iran, Russia, nor North Korea—is singled out in this way.

See more on Item 7: unwatch.org/item7/

The UN Security Council is due to vote on renewing the mandate of UN peacekeepers in Lebanon.

The 🇺🇸 U.S. has branded UNIFIL an “abject failure” and reportedly wants it shut down, while 🇫🇷 France is pushing to prolong it.

Here's what you need to know: 🧵 2/ UNIFIL was established in 1978, but after the 2006 war between Israel and the Hezbollah terrorist organization in Lebanon, the UN Security Council strengthened UNIFIL’s mandate.

UNIFIL was entrusted with overseeing Hezbollah’s disarmament and withdrawal from southern Lebanon.

Don’t be fooled by UNRWA’s lies.

On X, they claim to show you “how #UNRWAworks.”

But they never show you how UNRWA employs terrorists, incites hatred, and prolongs the conflict.

This is how UNRWA really works:🧵 2/ UNRWA was created to help refugees from the 1948 Arab-Israeli war.

It had a noble goal: provide food, medical care, and housing to displaced people so they could rebuild their lives.

But the UN agency quickly lost its way.

U.N. Antisemite Loses Blue Check
(GENEVA — For the first time ever, a U.N. official has lost verified status on social media. Francesca Albanese, recently sanctioned by the U.S., has lost her “blue check” on X after UN Watch's legal appeal to Elon Musk.
unwatch.org/u-n-official-f… 2/ The letter, sent on July 31 to Elon Musk and the legal team at X, called on the company to remove Albanese’s blue check mark in light of her designation under U.S. sanctions. The verification badge was removed from her account on August 4.

Reuters forgot to say: 1 of the UN “experts” is a nutcase who was condemned for antisemitism by the EU, Britain, France, Germany, Canada, Italy, US, Netherlands, Australia, Austria, Czechia, Hungary, Brazil, Belgium, Switzerland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark & even the UNHRC Chair. 🧵

https://twitter.com/Reuters/status/1932407537455755609

2/ Miloon Kothari, one of the three commissioners behind this report, famously declared in 2022 that “social media is controlled largely by the Jewish lobby.”

He became the first UN investigator to be condemned for antisemitism. Yet his inquiry Chair, Navi Pillay, defended him.

UN-REAL: Meet the newest members of the UN's Economic and Social Council.

This top UN body oversees key human rights & women’s rights commissions.

Electing human rights abusers Russia, China, Turkey & Burundi to the council is like putting Dracula in charge of the blood bank.

https://twitter.com/UNECOSOC/status/1930454693211451545

2/ These oppressive regimes were elected in a secret ballot at the UN General Assembly, receiving the following % of possible votes:

🇷🇺 Russia: 61%
🇹🇷 Turkey: 92%
🇨🇳 China: 95%
🇹🇩 Chad: 96%
🇧🇮 Burundi: 97%

And here’s the kicker—Western democracies helped make this happen 👇

The UN has spent billions on @UNIFIL_ , its flagship peacekeeping force in Lebanon.

But UNIFIL has a long track record of failing to keep the peace.

On International Day of UN Peacekeepers, let’s assess the true cost of UNIFIL’s litany of failures: 🧵 2/ UNIFIL was established in 1978, but after the 2006 war between Israel and the Hezbollah terror organization in Lebanon, the UN Security Council strengthened UNIFIL’s mandate.

UNIFIL was entrusted with overseeing Hezbollah’s disarmament & withdrawal from southern Lebanon.

“UN Watch is one the world’s most important NGOs. It has a David and Goliath mission: to hold the UN accountable. Neuer is watching. A man with a formidable intellect. Purpose driven. Laser focused. He is the man every democratic nation is in debt to—whether they know it or not.” 2/ “Who’s watching the watcher? This question, this phrase, born of the 1st century Roman poet Juvenal, was the first thing that came to my mind when I found out Hillel Neuer was coming to Australia. The second thought was: This is a conversation I must have.”
@GemmaTognini

“𝗡𝗢𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗧𝗢 𝗛𝗜𝗗𝗘”: A bombshell new UN Watch report exposes how the UN and Francesca Albanese engaged in a cover-up to conceal her funding by pro-Hamas lobby groups.

Here are the highlights of the report: 🧵 2/ In November 2023, Albanese toured Australia and New Zealand on a trip sponsored by pro-Hamas lobby groups, including Sinwar sympathizers like @AFOPA_Australia.

This violated UN rules forbidding officials from accepting payment for mandate-related activities.

Silence.
Neglect.
Complicity.

This is not what you’d expect from the world’s largest humanitarian organization.

But on International Red Cross and Red Crescent Day, we look at the scandals that they would rather ignore: 2/ The Red Cross has failed the hostages in Hamas captivity:

- The Red Cross hasn’t visited a single hostage in Gaza
- Red Cross officials were complicit in Hamas's humiliating hostage handovers
- Hostage families were equated with those of convicted Palestinian prisoners

BREAKING: The three-year extension of Francesca Albanese’s role as a U.N. special rapporteur is “invalid” and “without any legal effect,” Hillel Neuer, executive director of UN Watch, wrote on Monday to António Guterres, the U.N. secretary-general.
jns.org/francesca-alba… 2/ Albanese, who has a long history of anti-Israel bias, began her second and final three-year term on Thursday. Neuer wrote to Guterres that the global body didn’t follow the proper process to extend Albanese’s mandate.

Att: @FranceskAlbs

Dear Ms. Albanese: This letter serves as formal notice that the purported renewal of your UN mandate, as “Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories” is invalid and without legal effect, and therefore null and void.🧵
2/ The purported renewal, announced at the conclusion of the 58th session of the Human Rights Council, was carried out in direct contravention of the governing legislation—as mandated under Presidential Statement 8/PRST/2 and enshrined in Article 7 of the Manual of Operations of the Special Procedures—which requires the President to bring forward to the Council any information of persistent non-compliance with the Code of Conduct for Special Procedure Mandate-Holders.
