New US-backed group says it will start aid operations in Gaza within weeks
- The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, led by U.S. Military veteran Jake Wood, plans to begin aid delivery in Gaza within weeks following discussions with Israeli officials.
- This announcement follows weeks of Israeli blockade on Gaza, which blocks food, fuel, and medicine and worsens a humanitarian crisis affecting 2.3 million Palestinians.
- The foundation is nearing completion of securing sufficient aid to provide hundreds of millions of meals within its initial three months, temporarily using current delivery networks while developing additional distribution centers approved by Israel to enhance aid reach.
- U.N. Humanitarian chief Tom Fletcher stated the U.S.-backed plan is far from meeting humanitarian law and noted the foundation must ensure aid "doesn't get anywhere near Hamas."
- International aid groups have widely rejected the plan, citing unresolved questions about funding, government involvement, and concerns that it may violate humanitarian principles and supplant existing aid systems.
