The UN has cut ties with a controversial public affairs officer at the Jerusalem branch of the United Nations Office of the Coordinator of Humanitarian Affairs a year after anti-Israel activities by the officer were publicly exposed. Kulhood Badawi was heavily criticized last year when she used her Twitter account, titled “Long Live Palestine,” to distribute a picture of a bloody child she said was “another child killed by Israel” following an Israeli air strike. It quickly turned out that the picture was a years-old Reuters photo of a child in Gaza who was injured on a swing set. It also quickly turned out that Badawi had an extensive history conducting anti-Israel activism while employed by the United Nations. At the time, the United Nations declared that the organization was “taking… concerns [regarding Badawi] extremely seriously.”
