Recent developments regarding humanitarian aid in Gaza have sparked controversy, as various international aid organizations express skepticism towards a new U.S.-backed plan touted as independent. Criticism has intensified following revelations about the connections between Israeli actors and the aid organization, leading NGOs to distance themselves from the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. Delays and looting have hampered the rollout of aid, prompting Israeli officials to reconsider previous strategies and potentially allow local aid groups to manage non-food assistance. Amid the chaos, Swiss authorities are contemplating an investigation into the U.S.-backed group, raising questions about the funding and motives behind these initiatives. Human rights organizations warn that the current aid framework may have dangerous implications and could exacerbate the humanitarian crisis, while concerns persist regarding the involvement of opaque military contractors in overseeing distribution efforts.
