The humanitarian situation in Gaza continues to deteriorate, with multiple reports alleging that both Israeli forces and U.S. contractors have used live ammunition against civilians seeking food and assistance. Human rights organizations like Amnesty International have accused Israel of employing starvation as a weapon of genocide against the Palestinian population. Recent testimonies from Gaza aid contractors reveal that colleagues opened fire on vulnerable individuals queuing for food, heightening the sense of peril surrounding aid distribution in the region. In response to these troubling claims, over 170 charities and NGOs are calling for an end to the U.S.-Israeli backed aid system, which they argue is exacerbating the crisis rather than alleviating it. Reports of violence at aid sites have also prompted investigations by the Israeli military, acknowledging civilian harm and pledging to review operating procedures. Amid these developments, humanitarian workers describe the dire conditions faced by civilians, with desperate quests for food leading to tragic losses. As the world watches, there are growing concerns over the morality and efficacy of the current aid distribution framework.
