On Tuesday, a humanitarian distribution center in southern Gaza was overwhelmed by the waves of the Palestinians, which began working on a controversial new support system operated by an unknown US-backed group.
The chaos has been associated with the efficiency of the Gaza Humanities Foundation to conduct assistance in the region, where the United Nations has warned that half a million people were starving after Israel blocked all assistance for more than two months.
The GHF said that “the size of the human at a moment at the end” at an aid center was such that its team “returned to allow a small number of Gazan to seek help and allow abolition”.
A person involved in managing the center said the situation was chaotic and the operators had lost control. The Israeli military has reported that its soldiers have fired a warning shot nearby.
The footage broadcast in Al Jazeera showed that they were a crowd of people who seemed to be the remnant of the cable fence as they ran for assistance access.
The GHF said normal activities were resumed after the incident.
Israel’s blockade and renewed attacks drawn by desperate conditions created by the attack International criticismThe The United Kingdom with Israel has called the Gaza “shocking” situation with Israel and the EU promised to review its trade agreement with the country last week.
Even one of Israel’s hard -lodged ally Germany has joined this condemnation, On Tuesday, Chancellor Fredricich Merz said he was “shocked” to see “the great misery of the civilians” in Gaza and would discuss how the government should respond.
The Gaza Humanities Foundation said in his statement that it has distributed 5 boxes of food since the launch of the operation in Gaza on Monday. It has previously stated that it is planned to arrive at the end of 1 million Palestinians ” [of] The week ”.
The Israeli military said that four distribution centers were set up in recent weeks, both of whom – both of which were nearest to South Gaza Rafaha – started working on Tuesday.
Until the total sanctions on Gaza were imposed in March, the United Nations was supervised by the United Nations, which brought people to several places around the coastal shit.
Under the new system led by GHF, separate Gazan families are required to travel boxed foods from US private protection contractors and Israeli military forces – in many cases for long distances on foot – in many cases. The hubs will be originally located south of Gaza.
Israeli officials say that the new approach is made to prevent diverting in Hamas. However, UN officials say they have not seen large -scale assistance diversion, and refused to participate in the project, as a “fig leaf” for forced displacement of the local people and condemned it as a “fig leaf” for humanitarian policies.
Speaking at a press conference in Geneva, Switzerland on Tuesday, the UN humanitarian spokesman, Jens Larke, said the GHF plan called “a confusion from what they need” and reopen all crossings in Gaza.
Israeli military officials and other Western officials have also personally criticized the plan as inadequate to remedy the catastrophic humanitarian situation in the war -torn shit.
The credibility of the new approach on Monday was further reduced, When GHF Executive Director Jack Wood has resigned“It is clear that this plan is not possible and humanity, neutrality, neutrality and humanitarian policies of freedom are strictly adhered to”.
On Monday night, it said that it was appointed John Aki as an interim replacement of Wood.
