Gaza Tension: Controversy Surrounding Gaza Humanitarian Foundation
- On May 19, Israel ended its nearly three-month blockade on Gaza, enabling the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation to initiate extensive food distribution efforts.
- This followed longstanding humanitarian needs and reports that over 400 Palestinians were killed while seeking aid near GHF sites, drawing international concern.
- Supported by the U.S. and Israeli governments, the GHF reported distributing more than 52 million meals and rejected claims of violence, stating that some accusations stemmed from a former contractor who had been dismissed.
- A Hamas-run Gaza interior ministry warned residents on July 3 against cooperating with the GHF, threatening legal penalties for collaborators and claiming the group endangers Gazans.
- These tensions highlight disputes over aid neutrality and control, with calls from 170 humanitarian groups for aid to return to UN-managed channels to ensure safety and impartiality.
