#Humanitarian Aid 

Images released by Palestinian media outlets show trucks distributing humanitarian aid in Gaza City, in the northern Gaza Strip

The distribution is reportedly being carried out by local clans and “security committees,” both controlled by Hamas.

Yesterday, videos posted on social media in Gaza also showed aid trucks being escorted by armed men from clans linked to Hamas.

The Israeli-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation does not currently operate an aid distribution center in northern Gaza, as it does in the south and center of the region.

Aid is distributed in the north by humanitarian organizations working under the auspices of the United Nations, such as the World Food Program.

In a joint statement released yesterday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz said: “Following information received today indicating that Hamas is once again controlling humanitarian aid entering northern Gaza and stealing it from civilians, the Prime Minister and Defense Minister have ordered the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) to present a plan within 48 hours to prevent Hamas from taking control of this aid.”

Documentation of trucks being seized by so-called Gaza clans supporting Hamas. In Deir al-Balah and Gaza City today and yesterday. It seems to me that Hamas has found a way to take credit for the aid and make sure it gets to whoever they want.

In northern Gaza, humanitarian aid is being distributed by Hamas-linked groups such as local clans and security committees, according to reports and images.

Israel, which does not control distribution in the area, has ordered its military to develop a plan within 48 hours to prevent Hamas from controlling and diverting aid intended for civilians.
