Geneva – Saba:
The United Nations condemned on Friday the work of the so-called "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation," which is supported by the Israeli entity and the United States.
During a press conference in Geneva, Jens Laerke, spokesperson for the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), said that this organization, which distributes food supplies in the Gaza Strip under often chaotic conditions, has failed to carry out humanitarian work.
He said, "The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, in terms of humanitarian principles, has failed. They are not doing what a humanitarian operation is supposed to do, which is to provide assistance to people where they are, in a safe manner."
According to the United Nations, distributing food and essential supplies in the besieged and devastated Gaza Strip after more than twenty months of continuous Israeli aggression has become increasingly difficult and dangerous in the Palestinian territories threatened by famine.
According to Laerke, "The United Nations is prepared to resume large-scale humanitarian aid operations as soon as Israel allows a sufficient number of aid trucks to pass through."
As of Thursday, 245 Palestinians were martyred and 2,125 others were injured by Israeli enemy army fire near aid distribution sites run by the so-called "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation."
With American and European support, the Israeli enemy army has continued to commit genocidal crimes in the Gaza Strip since October 7, 2023. This has resulted in the deaths of 55,207 Palestinian civilians, the majority of whom are children and women, and the injury of 127,821 others, as of Thursday, according to a preliminary toll. Thousands of victims remain under the rubble and on the roads, unable to be reached by ambulance and rescue crews.
