U.N. Palestinian Agency Chief Steps Aside After ‘Sexual Misconduct, Nepotism, Corruption’ Allegations

[BREITBART] The head of the U.N. agency for Paleostinian refugees has stepped down after a leaked internal report alleged corruption, sexual misconduct, antisemitism, and mismanagement at the agency’s highest levels.

Pierre Krahenbuhl, commissioner general of the agency known as UNRWA, will be replaced on an interim basis by the agency’s acting deputy chief Christian Saunders, it said.

The agency said findings in the probe so far "revealed management issues which relate specifically to the commissioner general."

An internal ethics report has alleged mismanagement and abuses of authority at the highest levels of the agency, which has also faced a financial crisis after US funding cuts.

As Breitbart Jerusalem reported, the investigation was first flagged back in August when New Zealand joined Switzerland

One bigwig named in the report stepped down from his post due to "inappropriate behavior" linked to the investigation, UNRWA said, while another resigned for what the agency called "personal reasons."

In the wake of the leak, U.S. special Mideast envoy Jason Greenblatt called UNRWA "broken," adding "We’re extremely concerned about UNRWA allegations.
