The United States government has shifted its approach to humanitarian aid in Gaza, opting to expand the existing Gaza Humanitarian Foundation's delivery system rather than creating a new plan. This decision comes as the hunger crisis in the region intensifies, prompting renewed efforts to ensure food assistance reaches those in need. According to a State Department spokesperson, the administration is committed to alleviating suffering and will build upon the foundation's current work to improve access to critical aid. Despite earlier claims of a larger contribution, officials clarified that the United States has pledged $30 million to the foundation, with half of that amount already distributed.
