Israel has not found evidence that Hamas systematically steals aid from the United Nations in Gaza, according to a report by The New York Times. Senior Israeli military officials and others involved in aid distribution said that the United Nations system is the most reliable for delivering assistance, with thefts more likely to occur from smaller organizations. While the Israeli military maintains that Hamas has exploited humanitarian aid, it did not dispute the lack of evidence for regular looting of United Nations supplies. The report follows a recent analysis by a United States agency that also found no systematic theft of US-funded aid.
