A United States military drone captured footage of suspected Hamas operatives looting a humanitarian aid truck in southern Gaza, according to United States Central Command. The incident occurred as the truck was delivering assistance from international partners, and the operatives reportedly attacked the driver before stealing both the aid and the vehicle. The current status of the driver remains unknown.

Officials emphasized that such actions undermine ongoing efforts by dozens of nations and organizations to provide daily aid to Gaza, with over 600 trucks entering the region each day. The event has drawn sharp condemnation from Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who called for Hamas to cease obstructing humanitarian relief and urged the group to lay down arms for the sake of Gaza's future.
