Justice Department backs UN claim relief workers accused of aiding Hamas are immune

The U.S. Department of Justice has reportedly sided with a United Nations claim that some relief workers accused of aiding the Palestinian group, Hamas, are protected by diplomatic immunity. The DOJ’s stance relates to a case involving alleged aid to Hamas from charity groups. The UN has long held that its workers enjoy certain levels of diplomatic immunity from prosecution. The DOJ’s agreement potentially complicates the U.S. government’s efforts to hold individuals and groups accountable for providing support to designated terrorist organizations. However, the specifics of the case could still influence the final legal interpretation and outcome.
