Actually UNWRA funding was spend the money on schools. A majority of now them damaged or destroyed.

But there was a secondary non-UN source of funds via Qatar directly to Hamas. Thus funding source was approved and encouraged by Netanyahu. Netanyahu actually empowered and transferred money to Hamas, while disempowering moderates because he felt that was the best way to ensure there was never a 2 state solution. Read it here in the Israeli press:

You should educate yourself on what is actually going on, rather than repeating tropes.
