TOP News Brief
Dropp Site News reported that Yehav Lischner, an employee at the United Nations Population Fund, provided Israeli diplomats with internal information during 2014 and 2015, according to correspondence the outlet obtained. The American news site said it had secured access to communications documenting the arrangement between the UN staffer and Israeli diplomatic officials.
The disclosure raised questions about the handling of confidential UN material and internal protocols at the international organization. Lischner's position at the UN population fund gave him access to sensitive institutional information that was apparently shared with foreign diplomatic representatives over the two-year period.
