 last month for different activities the agency describes as being supportive of Hamas. ...

"The Shin Bet claims that in 2014 Burish was instructed by Hamas to apply for an engineer position at the UN Development Program in charge of renovating houses damaged during conflict with Israel.

"According to the Shin Bet, Burish abused his power to help Hamas, either by renovating their houses or informing them of such renovations when they held benefit for the group. For example, he allegedly informed Hamas that armaments or tunnel entrances were found in homes under the UNDP's authority so that the group could commandeer the site, in clear contradiction of the UN organization's mandate. The Shin Bet also accuses Burish of creating a makeshift dry dock in Gazoo for Hamas using UN resources."

The News Agency that Dare Not be Named reports that the UNDP issued a statement saying the agency was "conducting a thorough internal review of the processes and circumstances surrounding the allegation."

The indictment came on the heels of two other cases of Hamas operatives allegedly infiltrating international aid organizations.

And on Monday, the Britannia-based Save the Children organization said it would begin investigating allegations made by Israel that one of its employees had been recruited by Hamas.
