Controversial US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation ends aid operations

The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation has ended its aid operations in Gaza, citing the successful completion of its emergency mission after delivering over 187 million meals. The foundation's presence was marked by controversy, with hundreds of Palestinians reportedly killed near its distribution sites, mostly by Israeli fire, according to the United Nations. The foundation operated within Israeli military zones using private security contractors, a system criticized by the United Nations for violating humanitarian principles and endangering civilians. While the foundation denies responsibility for the deaths and disputes United Nations statistics, Hamas has called for accountability, and the United Nations maintains that aid needs in Gaza remain unmet despite increased deliveries since the recent ceasefire.
